Wisdom Teeth
Generally adults have 32 teeth when they have all of their teeth in place. However most people only use 28 teeth. The additional 4 teeth are called wisdom teeth and are located at the very back of the mouth.

Why are wisdom teeth removed?
Wisdom teeth often do not grow in the correct orientation and are misshapen. This makes them difficult to clean. Some people need urgent management of these teeth due to an infection called pericoronitis. If necessary, we are able to take these teeth out which allows for good health of the other molar teeth. Current techniques allow us to remove wisdom teeth in a way that is less uncomfortable and the new medicines we use afterwards make healing much easier.
-
Can you remove wisdom teeth in one visit?
Yes! In most cases, it only takes one visit to do a root canal. Of course, every case is different but we always do our very best to make your appointments as efficient as possible.
