I am experiencing limited mouth opening for past few days and today I went to see the dentist who performed an x ray and showed me the inclined position of my mandibular third molar w.r.t the second molar and recommended extraction. But i'm not sure that after the extraction my mouth would show full opening, please provide me some information!
