Wisdom Teeth Removal

At Smile for Life Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we understand the importance of taking care of your teeth. One way to make sure you’re on the right path is by considering wisdom tooth removal, if necessary. 


Also known as third molars, our wisdom teeth are typically the last set of adult teeth to develop and come through between the ages 17–25. If there isn’t enough room in your mouth for them to properly erupt, they may become impacted – partly or fully surrounded by gum tissue or bone. This can cause pain and discomfort. It can also lead to other problems such as infection, damage to adjacent teeth, and formation of cysts or tumors.

The Benefits of Saying Goodbye to Impacted Third Molars

Removing impacted wisdom teeth is generally a safe procedure that can help you avoid these potential problems. It’s also simple compared to many other dental procedures. Here are just a few of the benefits of having your wisdom teeth removed: 


  • Increased comfort and less pain: Impacted third molars can sometimes cause discomfort due to pressure on the surrounding tissues. Removing them helps reduce this pressure and any associated pain. 
  • Easier maintenance: Impacted third molars can be difficult to keep clean because they may not erupt all the way through the gum tissue, making it hard for you to brush them properly with a toothbrush. Having them removed makes it easier to keep your teeth clean and healthy. 
  • Improved dental health: Removing impacted wisdom teeth can help prevent infection, damage to adjacent teeth, and the formation of cysts or tumors. It’s also an effective way to reduce your risk for gum disease.
