What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth removal is a common oral surgery procedure designed to address problems associated with the third molars. These teeth typically emerge during the late teens or early twenties, but due to limited space or improper growth, they can cause issues like crowding, pain, or infections. At our Encino clinic, we specialize in safe and efficient extractions to maintain the integrity of your smile.
Signs You Might Need Wisdom Teeth Removal
If you’re noticing any of the following symptoms, it may be time to schedule a consultation:
- Persistent Jaw Pain: Discomfort or pressure in the back of your mouth.
- Swollen or Tender Gums: A sign of irritation or inflammation near erupting wisdom teeth.
- Difficulty Chewing: Pain when biting down or eating due to misaligned teeth.
- Frequent Infections: Partially erupted teeth create spaces where bacteria can thrive.
- Damage to Nearby Teeth: Crowding caused by wisdom teeth pressing on adjacent molars.
- Cysts or Other Complications: Impacted teeth may lead to cysts, which can damage bone and tissue.
Our Encino team will perform a thorough evaluation to determine if wisdom teeth removal is the right solution for you.
