Wisdom Teeth Removal

Tavistock Dental

Struggling with wisdom teeth? We can help.

Wisdom teeth often arrive in your late teens or early twenties, but for some, these final molars can cause pain, infection, and misalignment. If you’re dealing with impacted wisdom teeth, we offer safe and effective removal to relieve discomfort and prevent further dental issues.

What is Wisdom Teeth Removal?

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last teeth to emerge at the back of your mouth. For many, they don’t cause any issues, but for others, they can become impacted. This means the teeth are unable to break through the gum properly, leading to pain, swelling, and potential infection.

Impacted wisdom teeth often require removal to avoid long-term problems such as tooth damage, gum disease, or misalignment of nearby teeth. Wisdom tooth extraction is a straightforward procedure that helps alleviate these issues and restore your comfort.

After the procedure, we will provide clear aftercare instructions to help you manage any discomfort and ensure a smooth recovery. Most patients experience a quick recovery with minimal downtime, allowing them to return to their regular activities within a few days.
