How common is an infection of a neighboring molar after impacted wisdom tooth extraction?

There are a number of potential causes of dental infection. Sometimes an impacted wisdom tooth can compromise the back root of the second molar. This would typically only be diagnosed after the wisdom tooth was extracted. The infected molar may not be related to the extraction. It may have had asymptomatic decay or periodontal disease before the impacted wisdom tooth was diagnosed and extracted. Usually, it is better to extract wisdom teeth prior to restoring or treating adjacent teeth because of the possiblility of damage or injury to the adjacent teeth during the extraction. While most dentists are very conscienteous and want to avoid complications in their procedures, complications do sometimes arise in spite of the dentist's best efforts. It is best to allow your dentist to manage these complications or refer you to a qualified specialist for treatment.

Once wisdom teeth are removed can they ever grow back?

GENERALLY, once wisdom teeth are gone they don't grow in again. If something is coming out from your gums after a wisdom tooth extraction, it might be a piece of root that was left out. It might also be a surnumerary wisdom tooth (extra wisdom tooth) that was already there before the extraction. However, they can grow back. It's documented, and happens to 1-3% of adults.Teeth don't grow back. Basically you get two sets, first the baby/milk teeth, then your permanent teeth. Wisdom teeth are the last of your permanent teeth to emerge.If you lose a milk tooth it will kinda-sorta be replaced with a permanent tooth (which you would have gotten eventually anyhow).When a permanent tooth is lost it's gone, your body won't make a new one.Back teeth are also known as molars. If you lose one of those before you have gotten your wisdom teeth, then it can look like it's the lost one that's grown back, but it isn't. It's the wisdom tooth (which you would have gotten eventually anyway) that has stepped up in its place.No. they dont grow back once they are removed. however, rarely we do find an extra molar, other than the wisdom teeth, which are called as the PARA Molars.Teeth don't grow back. Basically you get two sets, first the baby/milk teeth, then your permanent teeth. Wisdom teeth are the last of your permanent teeth to emerge.
