Expert Wisdom Teeth Extraction Services in Orlando, FL

Are you experiencing problems with your wisdom teeth? Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically start erupting between the ages of 17 and 25. However, these teeth often cause complications, and around 5 million patients require wisdom tooth extraction each year in Orlando, FL.

Reasons for Wisdom Teeth Extractions

To determine if you need wisdom teeth removal, our experienced dentist will conduct a thorough examination and may use diagnostic tests like x-rays or a CT scan. Here are some typical reasons for wisdom teeth extraction:

  • Impacted wisdom teeth damaging the jawbone or neighboring teeth.
  • Insufficient space in the jaw for wisdom teeth to emerge properly.
  • Partial eruption or an awkward angle of the wisdom teeth, increasing the risk of infection.

Whether you want to prevent future problems or alleviate existing conditions, wisdom tooth extraction can be an effective solution. Our dentists are here to answer any questions you may have.

Wisdom Teeth Extraction Procedure

At our dental office in Orlando, FL, wisdom tooth extractions are usually performed by a dentist or oral surgeon. If you need to remove a single wisdom tooth, local anesthesia is commonly used. However, for multiple extractions, general anesthesia or conscious sedation may be recommended. Your dentist will discuss the best approach for your situation.

If the wisdom tooth is impacted below the gum line, our dental professionals will gently open the gum tissue and remove the tooth. Sutures may be applied to aid in healing. After the procedure, you will rest for a short time before returning home. Depending on the anesthesia, it may be necessary for someone to drive you.

Recovery and Post-Extraction Care

It typically takes a few days to recover after wisdom tooth removal. During this time, rest as much as possible and take any prescribed pain medication. Mild bleeding at the extraction site(s) is normal and can be controlled by gently biting on gauze pads, changing them as needed. Keeping your head elevated on pillows helps reduce swelling, and applying ice packs intermittently on the first day can provide relief. From the second day, a warm water-moistened cloth can enhance comfort. Rinsing your mouth with warm salt water a few times a day can also help alleviate discomfort.

Soft foods are recommended for a few days after the extraction, and caution should be exercised while brushing and introducing anything into your mouth until complete healing. Our dental team will provide additional post-operative instructions to ensure your comfort during the healing process.
