Wisdom Teeth Removal

Calm, Gentle Wisdom Tooth Removal

Smart solutions for those troublesome teeth

At Dentélle by WDC, we understand that wisdom teeth can often cause more trouble than they’re worth. Whether they’re impacted, causing pain, or posing a risk to your other teeth, our experienced team is here to provide comfortable and effective wisdom teeth removal. Let’s explore how this common procedure can help you maintain a healthy, pain-free smile.

Avoiding dental complications

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to come through, usually appearing in your late teens or early twenties. Often, there isn’t enough space in your mouth for these teeth to come in properly, leading to a variety of issues:

Impaction: When wisdom teeth are trapped beneath the gum line or against other teeth.
Overcrowding: Adding extra teeth can shift your other teeth out of alignment.
Decay and Infection: Difficult to clean properly, wisdom teeth are prone to cavities and gum disease.
Cysts and Tumours: Rarely impacted wisdom teeth can cause cysts or tumours in the jawbone.

Removing wisdom teeth can prevent these complications and keep your teeth in the best health possible.

Your journey to relief from wisdom teeth

Step 1: Initial Consultation

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at Dentélle by WDC. Our dentists will evaluate your wisdom teeth using digital X-rays, 3D scans of your teeth and jaws and a thorough oral examination. We’ll discuss your symptoms, answer any questions, and explain the procedure so you feel comfortable and informed.

Step 2: Preparing for the Procedure

Before your wisdom teeth removal, we’ll provide detailed instructions on how to prepare. This may include guidelines on fasting, medications, and what to expect on the day of the surgery. Our goal is to make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Step 3: Getting you comfortable

To ensure your comfort, we offer various relaxation treatments including sedation and in-house general anaesthesia. We’ll discuss the best option for your level of nervousness and ensure you’re completely comfortable before we begin.

Step 4: Removing your Wisdom Teeth

During the procedure, our skilled dentists will carefully remove your wisdom teeth. If the teeth are impacted, a small incision may be made in your gum to access the tooth. Once the teeth are removed, the area is cleaned, and stitches may be placed to promote healing.

Step 5: Post-Operative Care

After the procedure, we’ll provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions. This includes tips on managing pain and swelling, dietary recommendations, and how to care for the surgical site. We’re always available to answer any questions and support your recovery.

Recovery and aftercare – Healing with comfort

Recovering from wisdom teeth removal typically takes a few days to a week. Here are some tips to ensure a smooth recovery:

Manage Pain and Swelling: Use prescribed medications, over-the-counter pain relievers, and cold compresses to reduce discomfort and swelling.
Follow Dietary Guidelines: Stick to soft foods and avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy foods that can irritate your surgical site.
Maintain Oral Hygiene: Gently rinse your mouth with warm salt water and follow our guidelines for brushing to keep the area clean.
Avoid Strenuous Activity: Rest and avoid heavy lifting or strenuous exercise for a few days to promote healing.
Watch for Complications: Contact us if you experience excessive bleeding, severe pain, or signs of infection.
