Tooth Extractions and Wisdom Teeth Removal
About Extractions
We understand that the idea of an extraction can feel overwhelming, which is why we take a gentle, thoughtful approach and prioritize your comfort from start to finish.
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last set of teeth to come in, typically during the late teen years or early adulthood. In many cases, there simply isn’t enough room in the mouth for them to come in properly. This can cause them to become trapped under the gums or only partially emerge, which may lead to discomfort or other concerns over time.
When Wisdom Teeth Need to Be Addressed
If there isn’t enough space for wisdom teeth, they can place pressure on nearby teeth or cause swelling and irritation in the surrounding area. Some patients also notice jaw stiffness, difficulty opening their mouth fully, or discomfort when eating.
When these issues arise, removing the wisdom teeth can help prevent further complications and support your long term oral health.
To get a clear understanding of how your wisdom teeth are positioned, a panoramic x-ray is often recommended. This allows us to assess the situation carefully and determine the best next steps. If needed, we will refer you to a trusted imaging centre for this scan.
