Can you have a wisdom tooth removed without having stitches?
I have had all my wisdom teeth removed and have never had stitches (Sweden). They were all removed in the same way by different dentists. Local anaesthetic followed by brute force pulling (sounds alot worse than it is). The "opening" left behind heals itself fairly easy. Just had a compressor against it for a few hours for some residual bleeding. Pulling a tooth is not much worse than any other treatment, however the healthier and the more visible the wisdom tooth is, the easier the pull will be.

Is it necessary to stitch after the wisdom tooth extration?
Whether stitches are necessary after a wisdom tooth extraction depends on the complexity of the procedure and the surgeon's preference. In many cases, especially for straightforward extractions, stitches may not be required, as the gum can heal naturally. However, if the extraction involves removing impacted teeth or if there is significant tissue loss, sutures may be used to promote healing and minimize complications. Your dentist or oral surgeon will provide guidance based on your specific situation.
What if your dentist doesnt give you stitches after wisdom teeth being pulled?
