Wisdom Tooth Extraction in Victoria BC

Surgical intervention is often necessary when a wisdom tooth does not erupt fully, or breaks within the gum prior to eruption. The solution is to extract the tooth through surgery. The dentist will make a cut in order to expose the hidden tooth. If the tooth were intact, it would be extracted as a whole. If a whole extraction is not possible, the dentist will use a drill to break up the tooth into tiny pieces for easier extraction.

Our dental clinic offers wisdom teeth removal in Victoria, and we try to make sure that our patients don’t have to suffer through too much pain or discomfort during the process. The process of extracting the wisdom tooth usually doesn’t cause a lot of discomfort because of local anesthesia or sedation. But the recovery can be a little painful, so we always recommend our patients to stay in touch with the dentist, and take prescribed medicines regularly.

Extraction of wisdom tooth can help relieve pain associated with partially erupted tooth, or tooth affected within the gum. If an affected wisdom tooth is unattended, there is an increased risk of infection, and greater chances for a misalignment of the teeth. It is best to remove any bad wisdom tooth as early as possible. The early removal is possible through early detection with regular dental checkups. Your dentist will examine your wisdom teeth for proper growth starting from your mid teenage years.

In many cases, a problem causing wisdom tooth can also cause problems to nearby teeth if it is left untreated for too long. So, if you are experiencing any problems with your wisdom tooth, book an appointment with us, and get some professional advice from the best dentists in Victoria BC. There are different types of problems that can occur if the wisdom tooth doesn’t fully erupt, so it is very important to get it checked in time.
