Wisdom Teeth Removal
Why Do I Need Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom tooth extraction is performed when there isn’t space for the third molars (otherwise known as the wisdom teeth) to erupt from the gums properly, resulting in an impacted wisdom tooth. Without extraction, these rear teeth can cause pain and a host of other dental problems now or in the future.
Though not everyone will need to have their wisdom teeth removed, many do undergo this procedure in their teens or early twenties. Having problem wisdom teeth removed, even before they cause problems, can help keep your smile healthy and straight and prevent complications in the years to come.
Dr. David Garate and Dr. Myriam V. Falcon at Perfect Smiles California have a combined 40 years of dentistry experience and offer patients in Chula Vista, National City, and throughout San Diego the latest in advanced technology when dealing with wisdom teeth. Whether an impacted tooth is causing you pain now or you want to avoid future complications, they have the skills and technology to preserve your dental health.
Prevent Extensive Oral Health Problems With Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth that are impacted or cause crowding can affect your bite and create pockets that trap food particles, leading to decay or even infection. Among the problems wisdom teeth can cause, include:
- Misalignment
- Decay
- Unbalanced Bite
- Impaction
- Abscesses
Treating Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Dr. Garate can provide wisdom tooth extraction if your third molars are impacted. Often, wisdom teeth do not erupt properly, which can cause pain, misalignment, and other issues. Following extraction, Dr. Garate will provide guidance to help you have a fast and comfortable recovery.
