FAQ About Wisdom Teeth Removal

 

Wisdom tooth extraction is usually a more advanced dental procedure than a normal tooth pulling. X-rays are taken and analysed to determine the safest and most effective and least invasive approach to extracting the problematic wisdom tooth or teeth. Read our FAQs below for more info.

What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth, also referred to as your third molars, are usually your last teeth to come through. They usually do not push through your gums until you are in your late teens, twenties and sometimes even older. In some cases, wisdom teeth have insufficient room to erupt and problems such as infection, cavities of neighbouring teeth, food packing and bad breath may occur. In select cases, we do recommend that you have your wisdom teeth removed early to prevent problems in the future.

Are Wisdom Teeth Important?

While they would have been an incredibly valuable asset for early humans, modern diets and lifestyles have rendered wisdom teeth far less necessary than they once were. Wisdom teeth aren’t useless, but the risks and discomfort associated with misalignment and infection tend to outweigh their usefulness in day-to-day life.

How Long Does the Extraction Take?

In most cases, the surgery required for wisdom tooth extraction and removal shouldn’t take longer than 45 minutes. This number can change slightly depending on specific circumstances, but our dental experts will be there to talk you through each step of the process where required.

With that said, the initial healing time for wisdom tooth surgery can be around 4-7 days. So, it’s important that you plan ahead and try to clear your schedule in preparation for your wisdom teeth recovery.

What Are Impacted Wisdom Teeth?

The term impacted teeth may get used quite a bit, but it rarely gets explained as a term. In short, a tooth will be considered impacted if there is not enough space for it to grow and develop in a healthy way. This tends to be associated with crowding and can lead to a variety of issues, including dental misalignment and infection.

How Much Will My Wisdom Teeth Removal Cost?

In most cases, removal of wisdom teeth will cost around $200-400 per tooth. The process usually starts with a $50 consultation which allows us to understand your needs and work out how your process will be handled.
