Ensuring Wisdom Teeth Can’t Cause Problems

Wisdom teeth are the very last molars to emerge through the gumline, found at the very back of the mouth. These teeth tend to make their entrance during the teenage years or early adulthood, and the truth is, they often cause all kinds of oral health issues for patients. This is why it’s often recommended to have the teeth extracted, either as a preventive measure or to resolve existing problems. At our office, we can perform safe, gentle wisdom tooth extractions.

The Wisdom Tooth Extraction Process

The process for extracting wisdom teeth is surprisingly straightforward and can be done in a couple of different ways, depending on whether the teeth have erupted or not. If they’re above the gumline, they can often be safely removed using special forceps after your mouth has been fully numbed. In instances when they’re still under the gums, small openings can be made in the tissue to access the teeth, and they’re normally removed in smaller parts to minimize trauma. Once they’re out, patients will need to undergo a brief recovery period, but from there, they’ll enjoy improved oral health and a far lower risk of future complications!
