Question:
Y should the impacted tooth must broke into small pieces to remove it ..?? i mean wisdom tooth ..?
after broken into small pieces .. how they take out .?
Answers:
An impacted tooth is jammed inside bone or up against the tooth in front of it, and because it's jammed, there is no room to maneuver the tooth out in one piece.
Cutting an impacted tooth into pieces creates room for the oral surgeon to work his elevator into where the tooth roots meet the bone. The elevator acts like a wedge (kind of like how you would force a crowbar tip between two planks of wood to loosen them up), allowing the surgeon to wiggle the root to loosen it up. Once the root is loosened, it can be pried out with the elevator or pulled out with forceps.
Hope this helps.
