Before your wisdom teeth removal, we’ll use advanced low-radiation digital X-rays and 3-D imaging to get a detailed view of your teeth, bone, and nerves. This technology helps your dentist plan the safest path for removal and spot potential complications before they arise. We’ll show you exactly what we see so you have all the information you need.
We’ve designed every step of the procedure with your comfort in mind. Most wisdom teeth can be removed in a single visit, and our precise planning means less time in the dental chair. With our expertise and modern technology, you can feel confident knowing you’re in good hands.
Your comfort during wisdom teeth removal is our top priority. While local anesthetic will keep you pain-free, we also offer sedation options to help you relax. You can choose laughing gas, which creates a calm, peaceful feeling during treatment and wears off quickly afterward.
If you want deeper relaxation, we provide oral conscious sedation. This safe option involves taking an FDA-approved pill before your procedure. You’ll feel deeply relaxed and may not remember much about the treatment.

Wisdom teeth usually come in between the ages of 17 and 25. If there is sufficient room for them to emerge in the proper place and position, then they may not need removal. However, if they come in improperly and put your other teeth at risk, they will need to be removed to protect your overall oral health.
Generally, it’s recommended to have wisdom teeth evaluated in your late teens or early 20s. At that age, the wisdom teeth roots are not fully formed, and the extraction process is typically easier with fewer complications. However, every individual is unique. Some people may need their wisdom teeth removed earlier or later depending on factors like overcrowding, impaction, or potential damage to nearby teeth.
You can expect to experience tenderness and swelling for several days. You’ll want to relax and avoid any type of strenuous physical activity. We’ll offer you instructions on diet, dental hygiene, and other elements of recovery. Swishing gently with lukewarm salt water will ease discomfort and help clean your mouth out. Complete recovery takes up to two weeks.
