Extractions and Wisdom Teeth Removal
There are instances when a tooth that is severely decayed or damaged is just irreparable. In these cases, our dentists can conveniently remove the tooth to prevent further damage.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Your wisdom teeth are the sets of third molars located at the back of your upper and lower arches. They are generally the last four teeth to surface, or “erupt,” and can appear anywhere between ages 17 and 35. Wisdom teeth commonly require removal if they do not have enough room to properly develop and become fully functional.
Reasons to remove your wisdom teeth
There are many reasons for wisdom teeth removal. Sometimes a surgical procedure is required to address sharp pain, inflammation, decay, or infection around the wisdom teeth. If your wisdom teeth impact the bones or bones of your jaw, it can be caused by:
- Damage to nearby teeth
- Disease
- Infection
- Tooth-crowding
