- Bad breath or bad taste in the mouth
- Difficulty chewing or opening your mouth
Treatment Options:
- Antibiotics to treat the infection
- Cleaning the infected area
- Tooth Extraction if infections recur
Prevention: Maintain good oral hygiene and visit your dentist regularly to monitor your wisdom teeth.
