Treatment
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Removal of problem wisdom teeth that lack room or come in at an angle, with comfort in mind.
Wisdom tooth extraction removes one or more of the third molars at the back of your mouth. These teeth often lack room or come in at an angle.
After numbing or sedation, the tooth is carefully removed, even if it is impacted below the gum. The site is cleaned and you receive clear aftercare guidance.
Removing problem wisdom teeth prevents pain, crowding, infection, and damage to the healthy molars next to them.
