Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt in the mouth—and often the ones that cause the most problems. In Bursa, “wisdom tooth pain” and “impacted wisdom tooth” are among the most common reasons young adults visit an oral surgeon. But does every wisdom tooth need to be extracted?

“Can my jaw dislocate while having a tooth removed?” This question is very common among patients in Bursa, especially before difficult extractions, wisdom tooth surgery, or long appointments. Stories circulating online and exaggerated claims on social media often make this fear seem bigger than it actually is.

“Now that I’m over 30, is it too late for braces?” This is one of the most common questions adult patients in Bursa and Nilüfer ask during their orthodontic consultation. Short answer: No, you’re not too late.

“Will my lip stay numb if I have my wisdom tooth removed?”, “My X-ray shows the tooth is very close to the jaw nerve, what will happen?”, “Should I find an oral surgeon in Bursa and have it removed with piezosurgery?” These are some of the most common questions we hear nowadays about wisdom teeth. Especially in lower impacted cases, when the roots of the tooth are close to the mandibular nerve (inferior alveolar nerve), both patients and dentists naturally become more concerned.

For people who are active in business life, frequently in social environments, or in front of the camera, this decision becomes even more critical. At Milim Dental Clinic in Nilüfer, Bursa, Dr Begum Ulasan (Dr. Begüm Ulaşan) offers both traditional braces and Invisalign treatments, providing personalised solutions for her patients. So in which situations are braces more logical, and when does Invisalign make more sense? In this article, we’ll go through all the pros and cons for patients considering orthodontic treatment in Bursa.

One of the most common and anxiety-provoking questions patients ask before seeing a dentist is exactly this. Especially when it comes to difficult extractions, wisdom tooth surgery, or long procedures, worries like “If I open my mouth too wide, can my jaw dislocate?” or “Can my jaw lock during tooth extraction?” are very common.
