ORAL SURGERY (TEETH EXTRACTION AND WISDOM TEETH)

There are many different reasons why teeth have to be extracted. Gross decay, infection and impaction are only some of them. Before removing any of your hopeless teeth, dentist will review your medical and dental history and take appropriate x-rays to ensure the safe tooth removal. At Dental Care Niagara, Dr. Daniela and her team will ensure you are always properly numb, thus providing comfort during the procedure, as well as give you any necessary post op instructions to ensure minimal discomfort and pain afterwards.

The most common teeth that have to be removed are called third molars or wisdom teeth. They are present at the back of your jaw, and cause problems to most people because there is not enough room for them to properly develop. They can cause crowding, improper bites; they can be partially erupted (making them difficult to clean around) or completely impacted (present under the bone, sideways, or growing into the adjacent teeth). They easily shelter bacteria that can build up leading to infection causing overlying tissue to swell, become inflamed and extrude the puss. To clear up the infection and get rid of associated pain, wisdom teeth are removed. Sometimes, they are removed as there will cause a future problem in the mouth. Talk to your team at Dental Care Niagara whether or not any or all of your wisdom teeth have to be removed.
