Gentle, Professional Wisdom Tooth Extraction Services
Tooth extraction is the last option we consider for patients. Before considering removing any tooth, we make sure that it’s the best solution for your oral health.
Some of the most common teeth we remove are wisdom teeth.
Wisdom teeth, or the backmost molars, erupt in our late teens or early twenties.
While not all wisdom teeth require removal, it’s often the best course of action for patients.
Wisdom tooth extraction can prevent overcrowding and other dental issues, especially if done before the wisdom teeth erupt. Our team at Victory Smiles will examine your smile to help you determine if this procedure is best for you. Visit us for all of your tooth removal needs.
Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?
Many patients benefit from wisdom tooth removal. If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, it may be the best treatment for you:
- Severe pain near the back of the mouth.
- Gum inflammation and irritation.
- Cavities forming in the back molars because of difficulty cleaning with wisdom teeth.
- Lesions or cysts formed by the wisdom teeth.
- Wisdom teeth appear to push on nearby teeth.
When wisdom teeth are already in, they can cause a host of issues including overcrowding, tooth decay, damage to nearby teeth, and more. However, dentists don’t need to wait until the teeth are in to remove them. Based on your dental x-rays, our experts can determine if wisdom tooth removal is right for you.
Aftercare Following Extraction
Properly caring for your wisdom teeth after extraction is vital for proper healing. Falling behind on oral hygiene or straying from aftercare can lead to infection, dry sockets, and other complications.
Our dentists set you up for success with clear aftercare instructions. We explain the aftercare to follow and send you home with notes! For example, do not drink from a straw or smoke in the first 24 hours after wisdom tooth extraction. Doing so increases the risk of dry sockets!
