Wisdom teeth have a reputation for being problematic and wisdom teeth removal is very common. As the last teeth to come through, they frequently try to erupt into a jaw too small to accommodate them and will need to be removed to avoid damage or infection to your existing teeth. Common problems include impacted wisdom teeth, where they try to come up underneath existing teeth, or wisdom teeth that have partially erupted.
Our Dentists will ensure your wisdom teeth removal is as gentle as possible and will discuss with you the options available to achieve this. It is normal to feel a bit sore for a few days afterwards as your mouth heals and you may find it preferable to stick to softer, easy-to-chew foods for a day or two, particularly if you have had more than one tooth removed. Recovery should be quick and uneventful and we are always here to answer any queries you may have.
