Wisdom Teeth.

Gentle Removal

At Beyond Smiles Family Dental, we provide comprehensive wisdom teeth assessments and treatments to protect your dental health and comfort. Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of molars that typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. For some people, these teeth grow in without issue, but for many, they can become impacted or cause overcrowding, discomfort, or other oral health complications.

Common Issues with Wisdom Teeth:

  • Impacted Wisdom Teeth: When there isn’t enough space in the jaw, wisdom teeth may become “impacted,” meaning they’re unable to fully emerge from the gums. This can lead to pain, infection, and even damage to adjacent teeth.
  • Overcrowding: As wisdom teeth grow in, they may push against neighbouring teeth, causing crowding or misalignment, which can impact your overall bite and alignment.
  • Infection and Gum Disease: Partially emerged wisdom teeth can create openings where bacteria may enter, leading to gum disease, swelling, or infections such as pericoronitis.
  • Cysts or Tumors: Impacted wisdom teeth may sometimes develop cysts, which can damage the surrounding bone or roots of neighboring teeth.
