Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom teeth are the last of your adult teeth to erupt, this most commonly happens in your late teens or early twenties. Sometimes they cause pain as they push through, this is normal. If there is not enough room in your mouth, or if they get stuck at an angle, they will require removal. A wisdom tooth getting stuck can cause intense pain and inflammation, and the tooth could also trap food which can cause decay in the wisdom tooth and possibly affect the tooth beside it. Our clinicians at Admire Dentistry are experienced in wisdom tooth removal and are here to guide you through this process. If the extraction is particularly complicated we work closely with Oral Surgeons to offer you additional options for treatment, including general anaesthesia if preferred.
Alternatively, if your wisdom teeth push through completely, fit well in your mouth, maintain function, and you are able to clean them well – there is no reason for removal.
