親知らずの抜歯
親知らずの抜歯
成人には4本の親知らずが生える可能性があります。これらは恒久的な大人の歯で、口の奥の上部と下部の隅に位置しています。親知らずの抜歯は、歯科医師や口腔外科医によって行われる一般的な外科手術です。
親知らずが適切に生えるための十分なスペースがない場合、痛みや不快感を引き起こすことがあります。また、感染症や他の歯科的な問題を引き起こすこともあります。このような場合、歯科医師や口腔外科医は親知らずの抜歯を勧めることがあります。
Kファミリーデンタルでは、当院のチームがあなたの親知らずを評価し、抜歯が必要かどうかについてアドバイスを提供します。必要に応じて、既存の歯科的な問題や潜在的な問題を解決するために抜歯手術を行うことができます。

なぜ親知らずを抜くのか?
親知らずは第三大臼歯とも呼ばれ、大人の口に生える最後の永久歯です。通常、これらの歯は17歳から25歳の間に生え始めます。時には、親知らずが全く生えないこともあり、他の人々は通常通り親知らずが生え、何の問題もありません。
しかし、時には「埋伏智歯(インパクテッド・ウィズダム・ティース)」という状態が生じることがあります。これは、親知らずが生えるためのスペースが口の中に十分にない場合に起こります。親知らずが埋伏すると、部分的にしか生えないか、まったく生えないことがあります。
埋伏智歯で直面する可能性がある問題
歯茎の下に完全に埋まる: 親知らずが正常な位置に生えない場合、顎の骨の中に閉じ込められることがあります。これを「埋伏智歯」と呼びます。この状態は、感染症を引き起こしたり、嚢胞が発生したりすることがあり、近くの歯の根や顎の骨の構造に害を与える可能性があります。
部分的に歯茎から生える: 口の奥は清掃が難しく、部分的に生えた親知らずは歯茎に細菌が入り込む隙間を作ることがあります。これにより歯茎の感染症や疾患のリスクが高まります。さらに、部分的に生えた親知らずは虫歯になりやすく、通常の詰め物では治療できないことが多いため、抜歯が必要になることがあります。
隣の歯が圧迫される: 親知らずが生えるスペースがない場合、隣の歯に圧力をかけ、歯の重なりや損傷を引き起こすことがあります。

親知らずが埋伏した場合に直面する問題は?
時には、親知らずを抜歯する必要があることがあります。これが必要となるケースは以下の通りです:
- 口の中に痛みや不快感を感じる場合;
- 親知らずの後ろに食べ物や 異物が詰まる場合;
- 親知らず周辺に歯茎の病気や感染症が発生する場合;
- 部分的に生えた親知らずに虫歯が発生した場合;
- 埋伏した親知らずが近くの歯や周囲の骨に影響を与えている場合;
- 親知らずの周りに嚢胞(液体が入った袋)が形成された場合;
- 矯正治療中に親知らずに関連する合併症が発生する場合;
親知らずの抜歯とは?
Kファミリーデンタルでは、親知らずの抜歯は歯科医師または口腔外科医によって行われる外来手術です。X線検査で埋伏智歯やその他の歯科的な問題が確認された場合、抜歯が勧められることがあります。
親知らずはすべての人に生えるわけではありませんが、生える人は1本から4本の親知らずを持つことがあります。手術中、外科医は歯茎に切開を加え、親知らずを一度にまたは分割して取り除きます。麻酔方法は、手術の複雑さや臨床的な要件に応じて、歯科医師または口腔外科医と相談の上、笑気ガス(亜酸化窒素)や静脈内鎮静などが選ばれます。
親知らずの早期抜歯
親知らずを早期に、つまり20歳以前に抜歯する場合、通常、抜歯手術は簡単に行えます。年齢が抜歯の厳密な基準ではありませんが、手術を遅らせることで合併症のリスクが増す可能性があります。
若い人では、親知らずの根がまだ完全に発達していないため、抜歯が比較的簡単で回復も早いことが多いです。しかし、年齢を重ねると根が長くなり、曲がることがあり、抜歯がより難しくなる可能性があります。
