Wisdom Teeth Removal
Why Wisdom Teeth Can Cause Problems
Wisdom teeth usually begin to erupt between the ages of 16 and 21, but most mouths are only designed to hold 28 teeth comfortably. When wisdom teeth push through, there is often not enough space, which can lead to crowding, pain, or impaction.
If left untreated, wisdom teeth may grow sideways, partially erupt, or stay trapped beneath the gums and bone. This can result in swelling, infection, or damage to neighboring teeth. At our practice, we monitor wisdom teeth early and recommend removal before these issues develop.

Using advanced imaging, we carefully assess the position of your teeth and create a treatment plan that prevents complications.
Early removal is often the safest approach, helping to prevent infections, misalignment, and discomfort. During your consultation, we will explain the procedure and answer any questions so you feel fully informed and confident.
