Obstructed teeth that do not grow will need to be extracted and a full-mouth surface tomogram will be taken. If the blocked tooth is growing and the crown is located below the gum, causing frequent swelling and infection, and there is no opposing tooth present, it can be extracted. If the x-ray shows that the growth direction of the blocked tooth is inclined and only tops the root of the adjacent second molar, causing resorption and loosening of the adjacent tooth and pain, it needs to be extracted. If the x-ray shows that the wisdom tooth is deeper and close to the lower alveolar nerve, causing symptoms such as numbness and sluggishness of the lower lip, it should also be extracted. If the epithelial tissue of the blocked tooth keeps growing, a cyst or tumor may have formed and must be extracted as soon as possible.
