Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom tooth removal is a dental procedure undertaken to address issues arising from the emergence of the third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth. These teeth often appear during the late teenage years or early adulthood and can lead to various dental problems due to their position at the back of the mouth. When there isn’t enough space for them to emerge properly, they can become impacted, causing pain, swelling, and even infections. Removing wisdom teeth is often recommended to prevent these complications and maintain oral health. The procedure is typically performed by an oral surgeon or dentist, either under local or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the case and patient preference. While the idea of wisdom tooth removal may seem daunting, it is a routine and relatively straightforward procedure with minimal discomfort during and after the surgery. Following the removal, patients are advised on post-operative care, including pain management and maintaining proper oral hygiene to ensure a smooth recovery process.
