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.

My experience at Chesterville Dental was fantastic. Dr Amy was incredibly knowledgeable and talked me through everything. She also provided a quote before she continued with the work. Got a Saturday appointment also, which was great. Highly recommend!

I have all of my family members with Chesterville Dental for a few years. All of the dentists including Dr. Gan, Amy and Elisabeth are so caring and professional at dental work. Recently, my little one (only 6 years old) has cavity on a few teeth. It is her first time to have teeth filling so she was so nervous and reluctant to do the filling at clinic. We almost gave up and are about to be referred to specialist. Dr. Elisabeth took the challenage and got all her teeth filled across 4 appointments. Her patience with kids and efficiency/effectiveness of the operation make my little one so relaxed and cooperative. Really appreciate your effort and professionalism!

I have been here for 2 years and have done a few things including dental cleaning, fillings and crowning, and I am really glad that I found this place! Dr Gan is very knowledgeable, kind and professional. I can feel that he really cares about his patients - not only did he provide excellent services, but he also recommend preventive measures which is something that I have never seen in other dental clinics. Thanks and I really appreciate it :)
