Talk to Dentist on Nerve Near The Root Of The Wisdom Tooth.
Asking for Self, Female, 23 years old, Brazil
I am a 23-year-old woman with no comorbidities and I need to have my 4 wisdom teeth removed. However, I am a little worried about the proximity of the nerve (upper and lower) to the roots of the teeth. I have read in some places that there is a risk of paresthesia and other risks due to the proximity to the trigeminal nerve. I would like to know if this risk is really high in my case? Thank you!

Yes your concerns are right.There is slight risk.You must do cone beam ct scan Cbct to know exact proximity to nerve.

The risk for injury is 3.6% according to the research,its minimal if handled by a professional. Kindly have your extractions by an OMFS surgeon, a dentist who has done FCPS in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
yes in your case there is a risk of temp pareshthesia (neuropraxia) which will recover in few days time.but careful surgical removal can avoid it in case of lower.in upper there is not much risk.
