Wisdom teeth removal can prove important when it comes to preserving your oral health and appearance. When you receive a timely warning about the need to have them out, you can schedule the procedure to take place before there are risks to your oral health and appearance. Patients at Sunny Smiles can count on us to provide this service before their wisdom teeth cause issues like crowding or tooth damage, and before there is a chance for them to become impacted. Remember that if you have not had these teeth out already, their movement is something that we can monitor during your regular oral health reviews.
Is It Time To Have Your Wisdom Teeth Removed?
Wisdom teeth tend to arrive long after the rest of your teeth move into place. These teeth, also known as your third molars, can become a concern in your teen or adult years. What you should know is that when they start to move into place, they can create different problems for you. One is the potential for them to push teeth and cause crowding, which means other teeth are pushed in and no longer exhibit the appropriate alignment. Another worry is that they can cause harm to the molars that neighbor them. Due to the lack of space available to them, it is even possible for wisdom teeth to become impacted, which means they do not erupt properly but instead shift or become partially erupted. This can lead to complications that affect your experience with their extraction.
Arranging A Careful And Conservative Wisdom Tooth Extraction
When we see that it is time to remove wisdom teeth, or when patients come in with problems due to their eruption, we will make plans to have them carefully removed. The process can involve minor oral surgery, which helps to ensure that they are properly removed while minimizing potential tissue damage or harm to neighboring teeth. Once we have them removed, we can prepare you for a positive recovery experience.
We Keep You Informed About The State Of Your Smile
To avoid complications from the arrival of your wisdom teeth and other concerns with your oral health, be consistent about dental exams and cleanings. In doing so, you can avoid potential troubles from the different threats to your smile, whether that threat takes the form of your wisdom teeth arriving, the development of a cavity, or another issue. During every review, we will provide details about the state of your smile; when problems are found, we will help you by discussing options for the most conservative forms of care available to you.
