Your smile’s health and aesthetics are paramount to us at Capstone Dentistry. An essential part of safeguarding that captivating smile occasionally involves wisdom teeth removal. As you reach young adulthood, wisdom teeth, or third molars, emerge at the back of your mouth. While they are a natural part of your oral anatomy, these teeth can often cause complications. At Capstone Dentistry, we provide a comfortable, state-of-the-art setting to ensure wisdom teeth removal is a seamless experience for our patients.

Why Wisdom Teeth Need Removal

There are several reasons why wisdom teeth may need removal, even if they aren’t causing immediate pain. These reasons include:

  • Impaction: Often, there isn’t enough space in the mouth for wisdom teeth to grow in properly. When this happens, the teeth can become impacted, meaning they don’t fully emerge from the gums. This can lead to pain, swelling, and infection.
  • Crowding: As wisdom teeth grow in, they can push other teeth, causing them to shift. This crowding can affect the alignment of your teeth, potentially disrupting any orthodontic work or causing other dental complications.
  • Cavities and Gum Disease: Wisdom teeth can be harder to clean due to their location at the back of the mouth. This can result in cavities or even gum disease in the area.
  • Cysts or Tumors: In rare cases, cysts or tumors can form around an impacted wisdom tooth, which can damage the jawbone or other teeth.

The Comfortable Experience at Capstone Dentistry

We understand that the idea of having your wisdom teeth removed can be daunting for many. At Capstone Dentistry, we prioritize your comfort and well-being. Our team uses advanced dental technology and sedation options to ensure the removal process is as painless and swift as possible. Dr. Bob and Dr. Arti bring their combined expertise and gentle touch to every procedure, ensuring patients receive top-notch care in a calming atmosphere.

Looking Ahead: Post Removal Care

After your wisdom teeth are removed, it’s essential to follow aftercare instructions for a quick and comfortable recovery. This includes resting, avoiding certain foods, and keeping the area clean. At Capstone Dentistry, we are committed to guiding you every step of the way, ensuring you get back to your routine with a healthier smile.

In conclusion, if you or a family member are experiencing complications from wisdom teeth or wish to have them assessed, reach out to Capstone Dentistry. Your oral health is our top priority, and we are here to provide the treatments and guidance you need for a lifetime of radiant smiles.
