What Technology is Used for Impacted Wisdom Teeth at W.I.S.E.?
We use new digital tools to make your surgery fast and safe. This technology helps us plan every detail before we begin to ensure your comfort.
- 3D CBCT Imaging: We use 3D scans to see your jaw in high detail. This helps us see exactly where your impacted wisdom teeth sit near vital nerves.
- X-Nav Surgical Navigation: This system acts like a GPS for your mouth. It guides the doctor during the wisdom tooth extraction for the best results.
- Exocad Digital Planning: We plan your whole procedure on a computer. This helps us avoid surprises and keep you safe.
When Should I Remove Wisdom Teeth to Prevent Tooth Decay?
The best time to remove wisdom teeth is usually during the teenage years. At this stage, the roots are not fully grown, which makes the wisdom tooth extraction easier and helps you heal much faster.
- Prevent Future Pain: Many people do not have enough room to grow these molars, which causes them to get stuck or stay partially erupted.
- Protect Your Smile: Impacted teeth can cause damage to nearby teeth. They can also lead to tooth decay or gum disease if they do not erupt properly.
- Stop Infections: Taking these teeth out early stops pain swelling and infection.
- Avoid Bone Issues: Removal stops fluid filled cysts from forming. These cysts can hurt your jawbone over the long term if left alone.
Types of Anesthesia
We offer several levels of anesthesia and sedation to match the procedure complexity and your personal comfort requirements:
What is Recovery Like After Wisdom Teeth Extractions?
Most patients feel well enough to return to school or work within 1 to 3 days. Our team focus is on your comfort so you can get back to your life quickly.
- Painless Care: We use local anesthesia and IV sedation to make sure you are relaxed. You will feel no pain during your teeth removals.
- Comfortable Sedation: You will be in a "twilight sleep". You will likely have no memory of the surgery.
- Managing Swelling: You can use ice packs to help with any pain swelling after surgery.
- Protecting the Blood Clot: We teach you how to protect the blood clot in the socket. This helps you avoid painful dry sockets.
- Healing Support: We give you clear steps to help your gum tissue heal. This keeps your oral health in top shape.
