Why is wisdom teeth  removal necessary?

Wisdom teeth are your third set of molars and usually the last teeth to come in, typically around age 17 or 18. Often, there isn’t enough space in your mouth for these extra teeth, which can cause them to partially erupt and push other teeth out of alignment. This can negatively affect your oral health. It’s best to remove wisdom teeth as soon as they appear and before they start causing discomfort.

If left untreated, problematic wisdom teeth can become impacted, meaning they get stuck below the gum line. This can lead to a swollen jaw, bleeding gums, and severe tooth pain. Removing wisdom teeth can prevent these painful issues and protect your overall dental health.

Benefits of Wisdom Teeth Removal

Less Crowding:

Removing wisdom teeth prevents them from crowding and pushing other teeth out of alignment.

More Comfort:

Extraction reduces pressure on your teeth, improving overall mouth comfort and functionality.

Avoid Impacted Teeth:

Removing wisdom teeth prevents the development of impacted teeth, which can cause infections and other dental problems.

I am very happy with the service. It was an emergency tooth extraction procedure and was done in the best possible way and very effectively. They accommodated my last minute request when no other clinics were able to in my area. Deeply knowledgeable and professional dentist with a good sense of humour as well. Definitely recommend them.

How do we do this?

Initial Consultation and X-Rays:

We start by ordering x-rays to identify the orientation of the wisdom teeth that have partially grown out or are trapped beneath the gum.

Anaesthesia:

We use a local anaesthetic or mild sedative to reduce pain and promote relaxation during the procedure.

Surgical Removal:

Our dentist will make small incisions in the gums around the wisdom teeth and carefully break apart the molars for removal.

Completion:

The procedure can take as little as 20 minutes, though more complicated cases may take a few hours. After removing the teeth and stitching the incision site, you will be able to go home.

I had a very pleasant experience with Dr Lisa Miller. She did my two wisdom tooth extractions yesterday and these extractions were referred to the specialist by my previous dentist. It was complicated extractions but Dr Lisa did very smoothly. She is so thorough and caring. I used to be afraid of the dentist and hated needles. But at EDentist it was no sweat at all. In fact, I'm ready for the next needles for the other two wisdom tooth extractions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Does it Take to Recover from Wisdom Teeth Removal Surgery?

Recovering from wisdom teeth surgery typically takes around two to three weeks. During recovery, your face and jaw might swell. Make sure to keep the sockets clean from any food particles and avoid alcohol or smoking until your dentist takes the stitches out.

What Are Dry Sockets?

Dry sockets are a painful condition that can happen if your tooth socket prematurely loses its blood clot. Dry sockets cause a dull, throbbing pain and most commonly occur in the bottom jaw. They are more common in patients that smoke or drink alcohol after wisdom teeth removal.

Do I Absolutely Need to Remove My Wisdom Teeth?

Not everyone needs wisdom teeth removal. Some people’s wisdom teeth come in with no complications. Your dentist can help you decide if wisdom teeth removal in Canterbury is right for you.
