Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?

The extraction of wisdom teeth is often recommended due to the following risks associated with their emergence:

  • Impacted Teeth: Limited space in the jaw can lead to wisdom teeth becoming impacted, meaning they are unable to fully emerge through the gums. This can result in pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth.
  • Partial Eruption: A wisdom tooth that only partially breaks through the gum creates a flap where bacteria can accumulate, leading to painful infections and gum disease.
  • Crowding and Misalignment: Emerging wisdom teeth can disrupt the alignment of existing teeth, causing crowding, misalignment, and aesthetic concerns, potentially undoing the effects of previous orthodontic treatments.

The Wisdom Teeth Extraction Process

Dr. Faltine and his team prioritize patient comfort and safety throughout the extraction process. The procedure typically involves:

  • Consultation and Imaging: An initial examination, often accompanied by dental X-rays or other imaging techniques, to assess the position and condition of your wisdom teeth.
  • Anesthesia and Sedation: To ensure a pain-free experience, local anesthesia is administered to numb the extraction site. Sedation dentistry options are also available to ease anxiety and enhance comfort during the procedure.
  • Extraction: The actual removal of the wisdom teeth, which can vary in complexity depending on whether the teeth are fully erupted or impacted.
