Expert Care for Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Everyone develops a set of third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth. While some people never experience issues with them, most will need to have their wisdom teeth removed in their late teens or early twenties.

Wisdom tooth extraction is often necessary when these teeth don’t emerge properly through the gums. They may grow at an angle, press against other molars, or remain trapped beneath the gum line. In some cases, wisdom teeth grow backward or sideways, which can cause pain, crowding, or other dental issues over time. While some patients need removal to relieve existing discomfort, many choose to have the procedure done early to avoid future problems.

Wisdom tooth removal is a common and routine procedure, though the exact approach varies based on each patient’s needs. Typically, local anesthesia is used to numb the area around the affected teeth. Depending on your comfort level and the complexity of the case, conscious or full sedation may be provided to ensure a relaxed experience.
The duration of the procedure depends on how the teeth are positioned. Teeth that have partially erupted are generally easier to remove, while those that remain fully impacted beneath the gums may require minor oral surgery.
After your procedure, you’ll receive pain medication and detailed home care instructions to help manage soreness and promote healing. Our team will also schedule a follow-up visit to ensure proper recovery and ongoing comfort.
