At City Smile Dental, we understand that the eruption of wisdom teeth can often lead to discomfort and potential dental issues. Our expert team is here to provide safe, efficient, and comfortable wisdom tooth extraction services to ensure your oral health is maintained at its best.
Wisdom tooth extraction is a common dental procedure aimed at removing one or more of the third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth. These teeth typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25 and can cause problems if there isn’t enough room in the mouth for them to grow properly. Common issues include impaction, infection, crowding, and damage to adjacent teeth.
Prevents Future Dental Issues: Removing wisdom teeth can prevent problems such as impaction, overcrowding, and infection.
Relieves Pain and Discomfort: Extraction alleviates pain caused by impacted or improperly positioned wisdom teeth.
Improves Oral Hygiene: Eliminating hard-to-reach wisdom teeth can enhance your ability to clean your teeth effectively, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease.
Protects Adjacent Teeth: Prevents damage to nearby teeth caused by pressure and crowding from erupting wisdom teeth.
Our experienced dental surgeons at City Smile Dental conduct thorough assessments using X-rays to determine the position and condition of your wisdom teeth. The extraction procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring you remain comfortable and pain-free. In more complex cases, sedation or general anesthesia may be used. The process involves making a small incision in the gum to access the tooth, removing it, and then stitching the area to promote healing.
