Most people have 32 teeth – 16 on the top and 16 on the bottom. Wisdom teeth are the four additional molars that most people get between the ages of 17-25. For some, these teeth come in perfectly healthy and do not cause any problems. However, for many others, wisdom teeth can cause a variety of dental issues that can lead to pain, infection, and even tooth loss, making their removal necessary.

What main benefits are associated with wisdom teeth removal?
While extracting these teeth may seem like a painful and unnecessary procedure, there are actually many benefits associated with this procedure. For starters, removing wisdom teeth can help prevent overcrowding and shifting of your other teeth. It can also help reduce the risk of developing cavities or gum disease in hard-to-reach places. Additionally, extracting wisdom teeth can also help relieve pain and discomfort caused by impacted or misaligned teeth.
How do I know if extraction is necessary?
If you are unsure whether or not wisdom teeth removal is right for you, call us today. We’ll conduct a visual and X-rays assessment to determine if they are impacted or causing any other problems. In some cases, we may recommend removing your wisdom teeth even if they are not currently causing any problems as a preventive way to avoid future dental issues and pain.
What’s involved with the removal process?
The good news is that wisdom teeth removal is a relatively common and straightforward procedure. In most cases, it can be performed under local anesthesia in an outpatient setting. This means you won’t have to stay overnight in the hospital and can go home the same day. The procedure usually takes less than an hour, and you will likely only experience minor discomfort afterward.
