What to Expect During Your Visit?

Examination & X-Rays

Your dentist examines the area and takes X-rays to assess the position of the wisdom tooth and plan the safest approach.

Anesthesia & Comfort

Local anesthesia is applied to ensure you feel no pain during the procedure. We make sure you're completely comfortable before we begin.

Tooth Extraction

The wisdom tooth is carefully loosened and removed. In some cases a small incision may be needed depending on the tooth's position.

Who Is This Treatment For?

Wisdom tooth extraction is recommended when your third molars are causing problems or are likely to in the future.

FAQ – Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Everything you need to know about wisdom tooth removal

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won't feel pain during the extraction. Some soreness and swelling after is normal and manageable with medication.

Most patients feel back to normal within 3–5 days. Full healing of the gum tissue takes a few weeks.

Not always. We only recommend extraction when the tooth is causing problems or is at high risk of doing so in the future.

We recommend soft foods for the first few days — soups, yogurt, mashed potatoes. Avoid hard or crunchy foods until the area heals.
