Wisdom Teeth Can Cause Big Problems

It's not unusual for your wisdom teeth to create problems when they begin to emerge. For many people, these third molars come through between the ages of 17 and 25 with no problems. For others, however, these teeth can become impacted under other teeth.

If you've been told you need your wisdom teeth removed, or if you suspect you do, then don't delay. We encourage you to come in for an examination so we can perform oral surgery if necessary.

If your wisdom teeth come in at the wrong angle or in the wrong place, they can damage your other teeth and cause you a lot of pain. When this happens, Dr. Wendelschafer will need to remove them.

Don't worry, however. Your smile will be in good hands. He and our skilled team will make sure your mouth is completely numb before any work is done. Plus, you can rest easy with a soft pillow or warm blanket. We even have headphones if you want to listen to your favorite music while we work.

Common Questions About Wisdom Teeth Removal

Why do wisdom teeth need to be extracted?
For many people, wisdom teeth come through with no problems. However, for others, they can erupt in the wrong locations, at the wrong angle, or under your other teeth. To prevent further problems, we can remove your wisdom teeth and help you maintain your oral health. Wisdom teeth removal is a common procedure -- one we've performed many times in our dental practice.

How long does wisdom teeth removal take?
The length of wisdom teeth procedures can vary by a wide range. Several factors that play into the time required include the number of wisdom teeth being extracted, their exact location, and how far they have already emerged. Once we examine your teeth, we can give you a much better idea of how long your specific procedure will take.
