Why Should I Have My Wisdom Teeth Removed?

If your wisdom teeth don't have enough space to grow correctly, they can cause pain, infection, or crowd your other teeth. Removing them early can prevent these issues and keep your mouth healthy.

At What Age Should Wisdom Teeth Be Removed?

When someone is in their late teens or early twenties, their wisdom teeth are usually removed because it's easier to extract them before the roots are fully developed. This makes the recovery process more manageable. However, if wisdom teeth are causing problems, they can be removed at any age.

What Are the Signs That I Need My Wisdom Teeth Removed?

  • Pain at the back of the mouth
  • Swelling
  • Difficulty opening the jaw
  • Cysts formation
  • Crowding of adjacent teeth

An examination by our dental professionals can confirm the need for removal.

How Is the Procedure Performed?

Wisdom teeth removal can be simple or surgical, depending on whether the tooth has erupted or is impacted. We use the latest techniques and offer sedation options to ensure your comfort during the procedure.

What Can I Expect After Wisdom Teeth Removal?

Post-operative instructions will be provided to ensure a smooth recovery. Common experiences include swelling, mild discomfort, and a restricted diet. Most patients resume normal activities within a few days.

Will I Need to Take Time Off Work or School?

Taking a few days off is generally recommended to allow for initial recovery. The exact time can vary based on the complexity of the extraction and individual healing processes.

What Are the Risks of Wisdom Teeth Removal?

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks, including infection, nerve damage, and dry socket. However, these are rare, and our skilled team takes every precaution to minimize risks.
