Wisdom tooth extraction is a common dental procedure aimed at removing one or more of the four wisdom teeth located at the back corners of your mouth on the top and bottom. These teeth, also known as third molars, usually emerge in late adolescence or early adulthood. Often, due to limited space in the jaw or the teeth emerging at an angle, they can become impacted, leading to pain, infection, and other dental issues. Extraction of wisdom teeth is a proactive measure to prevent such complications and maintain oral health.
Examination and X-rays to assess the position and health of the wisdom teeth.
Administration of local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity and patient preference.
