What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth removal is a common oral surgery procedure to extract one or more wisdom teeth. These teeth usually emerge in your late teens or early twenties, and due to limited space in the mouth, they often cause problems like impaction, crowding, or infections. Removing problematic wisdom teeth can prevent pain and protect your oral health.

Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?

1.

Relief from Pain

Removing problematic wisdom teeth eliminates current discomfort and prevents future pain from impacted or partially erupted teeth.

2.

Increased Risk of Infection

Swelling, redness, or tenderness around the gums at the back of the mouth can be signs of an infection due to impacted wisdom teeth.

3.

Crowded Teeth

Impacted wisdom teeth can push on adjacent teeth, causing crowding and misalignment.

4.

Impacted Teeth

When wisdom teeth are unable to erupt fully, they become impacted, causing pain, swelling, and infection.

About 85% of third molars will eventually need to be removed, according to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons.

Wisdom Teeth Removal FAQs

If you have any questions about wisdom teeth removal, we’ve got answers.

Wisdom teeth usually emerge sometime between the ages of 17 and 25.

The ideal time for wisdom teeth removal is typically in the late teens or early twenties when the roots are not fully developed, and recovery is generally faster.

We will assess your case thoroughly to determine the best course of action. Sometimes we only need to remove one or two, and sometimes three or four.

With local anesthesia you should not feel pain during the extraction. You may experience some discomfort or swelling afterward, but this can be managed with pain medication.

Wisdom teeth are harder to remove than other teeth because they’re not just one simple extraction but four teeth located in the back of the mouth, usually close to major nerves. Typically, wisdom tooth extraction is performed by our dentist or an oral surgeon, with the option of sedation during the procedure.

Stick to soft foods like soups, yogurt, and mashed potatoes for the first few days. Avoid hard, crunchy, or spicy foods until healing is complete.
