Wisdom Tooth Extractions
Menu
In addition to regular tooth extractions, we are here for you if you experience wisdom tooth discomfort. Wisdom teeth are four permanent adult teeth that are located at the very back of your mouth. If healthy and functional, your wisdom teeth can be useful. However, in some cases they may need to be removed:
- Wisdom teeth can sometimes become impacted under the gum, or may only partially erupt through the gum. This can cause swelling, pain and even infection of the surrounding gums.
- Wisdom teeth can also put pressure on the adjacent teeth, which can result in permanent damage to these otherwise healthy teeth and their surrounding bone. Impacted wisdom teeth can also lead to the formation of cysts, and even tumors that could potentially destroy an entire section of your jaw.
- Lastly, fully erupted wisdom teeth may need to be removed because they are very hard to clean, and can therefore become severely decayed.
Benefits of removing your wisdom teeth at Brockport Dental:
Procedure is performed by our experienced oral surgeon in-house, who participates with a wide variety of insurance plans.
If you are anxious about the procedure, we offer Sedation Dentistry so you can be at ease during your time in the chair.
We are equipped with the latest panoramic (2D) and CBCT (3D) X-ray technology to lower the risk of possible complications during the extraction procedure, so you can have an uneventful post-operative recovery.
