Does Pulling Out Teeth Before Growing Completely A Better Option?
Hello.. am 21 years old, I have a growing molar, probably the last according to the other side of my mouth, but I keep on chewing my lower cheek I feel a small pain. Will I have to wait for the lower molar to make a perfct match or remove the existing new molar to reduce the risk of getting an infection later. Thx

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have erupting third molar now you have Cheek bite and you feel pain , you should go for Extraction of tooth as you have cheek bitting means it is erupting buccally so treatment for this is you should go for Extraction ,
For cheek bitting you can apply ointment on cheek Mucopain twice daily for one week
Hope it will help you.
Wishing you Good health,
Regards
