Wisdom Teeth Removal
Looking for a wisdom teeth dentist? Wisdom teeth, also known as “third molars,” are typically the last teeth to emerge through the gums, often appearing in your late teens, twenties, or even later. Most people have four wisdom teeth, but some may have one, two, three, or none at all. These teeth usually erupt between the ages of 16 and 20.
Because wisdom teeth are the final permanent teeth to come in, there is often limited space in the mouth to accommodate them. This can result in impacted wisdom teeth, which are trapped beneath the gum tissue by other teeth or bone, leading to swelling and tenderness. At DentalOne, our dentists are experts in evaluating your wisdom teeth and advising whether they need to be removed.
Wisdom teeth can often cause issues during stressful times, such as school exams. It’s wise to have your teenager’s wisdom teeth evaluated before they reach 18 year of age to avoid potential problems. If your child is a candidate, early removal may be recommended, as it can be easier and less complicated than waiting until adulthood. DentalOne is dedicated to ensuring your family’s dental health is well managed, offering expert advice and treatment for wisdom teeth.
If feeling anxious about getting your wisdom teeth removed DentalOne offers sleep dentistry to easy any stress or anxiety.
