Overview: Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars located at the back of your mouth. When they do not have enough space to emerge or grow properly, they can cause pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. At All Heart Dental, we specialize in the gentle extraction of wisdom teeth to prevent future dental issues.
We offer a safe and comfortable environment for wisdom teeth extractions, using the latest technology to minimize discomfort and ensure a quick recovery. Our team is committed to making your procedure as smooth and stress-free as possible, with personalized care from start to finish. Benefits of Wisdom Teeth Extractions: • Prevention of pain and infection • Protection of surrounding teeth • Minimizing the risk of misalignment • Decreased risk of cysts and other complications
Wisdom teeth are typically removed between the ages of 17 and 25, but your dentist can help determine the best timing for you.
Recovery usually takes 3-5 days, but full healing can take a few weeks depending on the complexity of the extraction.
Wisdom teeth are often removed if they are impacted, causing pain, infection, or damage to neighboring teeth. If there isn't enough space in your mouth, they may become misaligned, leading to oral health problems.
Wisdom teeth are typically removed between the ages of 17 and 25 when the roots aren’t fully formed, making extraction easier and recovery quicker. However, the best time to remove them varies for each person.
The procedure itself is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain. Some patients may also opt for sedation to help them relax. Mild discomfort or swelling is common afterward but can be managed with pain medications.
Recovery typically takes about 3-5 days for the initial healing, although full recovery can take a few weeks. Swelling and discomfort should decrease after the first few days.
In many cases, dissolvable stitches are used that will naturally dissolve within a week or two. If non-dissolving stitches are used, they will be removed during a follow-up visit.
