Place your toothbrush in your mouth along the cheek wall as if brushing the sides of your teeth, then partly close your mouth and relax the muscle allowing your jaw to drop slightly and your cheeks to stretch, then go along the back side of the wisdom tooth, reaching as far as you can, then with your mouth slightly open, reach from the tongue side, behind the tooth on the opposite side as far as you can!. Then do the others the same way!.

It may be difficult to brush and floss these teeth, but in most cases, it can be done if you just work at it!. If the teeth still present a hygiene problem, you may want to discuss extracting them with your dentist!. It's pretty common to have them removed if they are difficult to keep clean, it's better to get them out now before they have tissue infection or decay develop!.

Additional information: It's probably more important that you floss behind these teeth to clean below the gum line where the tooth brush can't reach!. Sometimes the teeth haven't erupted (or won't ever erupt further due to limited space) enough to get behind them; in these cases a Water Pik may be of use to "gently" clean debris out from under the tissue!. Talk with your hygienist or dentist for different ideas, techniques or aids for cleaning this difficult to reach area!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
