Do I need to remove the cyst under molar?
Absolutely should have it biopsied. You don’t know it is a cyst or no dentist can tell you this without prior biopsy to confirm histopathologic diagnosis. Could be something else. READ MORE
Do I need to remove a mouth cyst?
Who told you it was a cyst? A cyst is an epithelial lined cavity. That’s it. Needs to be biopsied and should be sent to an oral and maxillofacial pathologist for diagnosis. READ MORE
Is it normal to get wisdom teeth when you're 14?
Skeletal age and dental age don’t always coincide. If surgeon said it was appropriate to remove, then I would agree. Most 20 year olds have longer roots which can have complications. READ MORE
How long does the dental implant surgery last?
Depends on site, under IV anesthesia or local, grafting, bone reconstruction, extraction with immediate placement. A lot of factors weigh in. Usually about 30 minutes READ MORE
