Wisdom Teeth Removal in Shelby Township
The wisdom teeth are the third and last set of molars to grow in. They usually emerge during the late teens and early twenties. Very often, there isn’t enough room in your mouth for the wisdom teeth, so they have to be removed before they can damage your other teeth. When this happens, we usually recommend having the wisdom teeth removed.
Because the wisdom teeth are extracted before they emerge, they need to be removed through surgery. We make small incisions above each tooth and extract it. After the procedure the incisions are closed with sutures. Wisdom teeth extraction is performed under a local anesthetic and sedation options are available.
After your treatment, we’ll discuss your post-surgical care and how to manage any pain and swelling.
