Wisdom Tooth Removal

Are you experiencing pain or discomfort in the back of your mouth? Your wisdom teeth might be the reason. We specialize in safe and comfortable wisdom teeth removal to prevent complications and protect your oral health. Whether your wisdom teeth are impacted, partially erupted, or causing crowding, our experienced team is here to guide you through a smooth and stress-free removal process. 

What is Wisdom Tooth Removal?

Wisdom tooth removal is a dental procedure performed to extract one or more of the third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth, located at the back of your mouth. These teeth typically appear between the ages of 17 and 25, but due to limited jaw space, they often emerge misaligned, impacted, or trapped under the gums.

When wisdom teeth lack sufficient space to grow properly, they can cause pain, infection, and other oral health problems. In these situations, removal becomes essential to prevent long-term complications.

Signs You Might Need a Wisdom Tooth Removed

Reduces infection risk

Impacted teeth can harbor bacteria, leading to cysts or gum infections.

 

Alleviates pain and swelling

Extracting problematic wisdom teeth relieves jaw discomfort.

 

Prevents tooth damage

Protects surrounding molars from decay and pressure damage.

 

Improves oral hygiene

Easier to clean teeth without hard-to-reach wisdom teeth.

Signs You Might Need a Wisdom Tooth Removed

  • Persistent pain or pressure: Ongoing discomfort in the back of your mouth or jaw can signal an impacted or misaligned wisdom tooth.
  • Swollen or bleeding gums: Inflammation around your last molars may indicate infection or difficulty with proper eruption.
  • Recurring infections or bad breath: Partially erupted wisdom teeth can trap food and bacteria, leading to chronic issues.
  • Difficulty chewing or opening your mouth: Discomfort while eating or limited jaw movement may point to an impacted tooth.
  • Jaw stiffness or frequent headaches: Pressure from wisdom teeth can affect surrounding muscles and nerves.
  • Shifting or crowded teeth: Lack of space in your jaw can cause wisdom teeth to push others out of alignment.
