What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth removal is the extraction of the third molars, the last teeth to come in, usually during the late teens or early twenties. Because there's often not enough room for them, they can become impacted, crowded, or infected. Removing problem wisdom teeth, often before they fully erupt, helps prevent pain, crowding, and damage to neighboring teeth. At Lava Dental, we perform wisdom teeth removal gently and comfortably, with sedation available for a stress-free experience.
The Benefits of Wisdom Teeth Removal
Pain Relief
Removing impacted or infected wisdom teeth relieves the aching, pressure, and discomfort they often cause.
Prevents Crowding
Taking out wisdom teeth before they push on their neighbors helps protect the alignment of your other teeth.
Stops Infection
Wisdom teeth are hard to clean and prone to infection, and removing them eliminates that ongoing risk.
Easier Recovery
Removing wisdom teeth earlier, before the roots fully form, often means a simpler procedure and faster healing.
