Your face does not get significantly smaller before or after wisdom teeth removal, and wisdom teeth do not have a significant impact on the size of your face.
The size or shape of the face is not directly related to wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth grow at the very end of the alveolar bone and do not play any role in supporting the face. Therefore, the face will not be significantly smaller before and after wisdom teeth extraction. We hope that patients will not listen to some folk rumors and do things that are not based on science.
However, when wisdom teeth erupt, if they are not in the right position or appear to be blocked, they need to be extracted in time, otherwise they will easily cause wisdom teeth pericoronitis or caries and damage the health of neighboring teeth.
For patients who are willing to adjust their face shape, it is recommended to go to the plastic surgery department of a professional hospital for consultation, and under the guidance of a professional doctor for facial liposuction or bone cutting surgery. All surgeries carry risks and patients are advised to consider them carefully.
For more information about wisdom teeth, please consult your dentist.
