When Wisdom Teeth Extraction Is Needed

We recommend wisdom teeth extractions in cases such as:

  • Impaction: when wisdom teeth don’t have enough space to erupt, they become stuck, causing infection and severe pain
  • Crowding: wisdom teeth sometimes press on other teeth, that makes other teeth shift
  • Infection: growing wisdom teeth can trap food, which leads to infections.
  • Cysts and tumors: in rare cases, cysts or tumors can develop around impacted wisdom teeth.
  • Difficulty cleaning: wisdom teeth are hard to clean, increasing the risk of cavities and gum disease.

When wisdom teeth extraction is necessary, we make sure the process is smooth, predictable, and stress-free.

FAQs About Wisdom Teeth Removal​

 

Wisdom teeth are often removed between ages 17–25, before they cause pain, infection, or alignment problems. Early removal typically means an easier recovery.

When wisdom teeth don't have enough space to fully erupt, they become impacted (squished between other teeth or bone), causing pain, infection, or in rare cases cysts or tumors, they must be removed immediately.

Most patients experience mild swelling, bleeding, and tenderness for a few days. Your dentist will provide pain medication and home care instructions to help with these symptoms. We also recommend resting and eating soft foods.

Recovery time after wisdom teeth extraction is different for each patient, but most patients start feeling better after several days. Complete healing usually takes one to two weeks or sometimes longer, depending on the type of extraction.

If you’re experiencing persistent tooth ache, swelling, or crowding—or if your dentist has spotted an impacted wisdom tooth during an exam—it’s time to discuss extraction options.
