Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, usually erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. In many cases, there is insufficient space in the jaw to accommodate these teeth, leading to pain, swelling, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. At Ace Orthodontics, wisdom tooth extraction is performed using advanced techniques to ensure safety, comfort, and quick recovery.
Impacted wisdom teeth may remain partially or fully trapped beneath the gums, increasing the risk of decay, gum disease, and cyst formation. Common symptoms include jaw pain, difficulty opening the mouth, headaches, and swelling around the back teeth. At Ace Orthodontics, a thorough evaluation using digital X-rays is conducted to determine the position and condition of wisdom teeth before recommending extraction.
The extraction procedure is carried out under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort. Modern surgical instruments and minimally invasive techniques are used to reduce trauma to surrounding tissues. After extraction, patients receive detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent complications such as dry socket.
Timely wisdom tooth removal helps prevent long-term oral health issues and maintains proper alignment of teeth. With experienced dentists and patient-focused care, Ace Orthodontics ensures a smooth and stress-free wisdom tooth extraction experience.
