Trust Your Dental Team
Wisdom teeth begin developing at an early age and begin to cause problems in the late teens. It is very common for wisdom teeth to be impacted and not have room for proper eruption. In rare cases they can be associated with destructive cysts which cause damage to jaw bone and adjacent teeth. Most impacted wisdom teeth will cause dental cavities and gum disease with neighboring teeth. Studies suggest removing impacted wisdom teeth prior to age 25 is ideal. Signs you might need to call one of board-certified Oral Surgeons include pain, swelling , bleeding with brushing or bad breath.
The procedure to remove a wisdom tooth can range from simple to complex depending on your unique situation. It is important to trust your treatment to an expert in surgery of the mouth and face. Our surgical specialists completed four years of full-time residency training after Dental school honing their skills in surgery, anesthesia, and medicine.
