Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often emerge in late adolescence or early adulthood and can sometimes lead to complications. Our experienced dentist can perform wisdom teeth removal, a common procedure to prevent or address issues such as impaction, misalignment and pain. We are dedicated to making the process as comfortable and stress-free as possible, ensuring your oral health is maintained.
Understanding Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth removal is often necessary when these teeth:
- Do not have enough room to emerge or grow properly
- Become impacted, causing pain, infection or other dental problems
- Pose a risk to the alignment of other teeth
- Make oral hygiene difficult, increasing the risk of decay
