When to have them taken out?
While not everyone requires wisdom tooth removal, it can be needed if you’re experiencing discomfort or potential complications. These can include infections, pain, overcrowding, or disruption to the alignment of other teeth.
Impacted wisdom teeth, which fail to erupt fully, can lead to more severe dental issues such as cysts or damage to adjacent teeth and roots, so they will need to be removed.
Your dentist may recommend removal based on a variety of factors, including oral health, the positioning of the teeth, and the presence of symptoms like swelling or jaw stiffness. If you're unsure whether you need this procedure, come and see us so we can assess your specific needs and provide personalised advice.
Wisdom Teeth Removal Process
Your treatment starts with a consultation with your dentist, who will take X-rays to assess the position of your wisdom teeth and develop a personalised treatment plan for you.
At our clinic you’ll receive general anaesthesia to ensure that you are asleep for the procedure. Our dentist will then go ahead with removing the wisdom teeth.
Once the treatment is finished, you will be put into recovery for a few hours until the anaesthesia wears off. You’ll be given post-operative care instructions, including pain management, swelling reduction techniques, and dietary guidelines to follow during recovery.
