Wisdom teeth can be removed in the chair, or with general anaesthetic. Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt in your mouth, which usually happens when you are between 16 and 23 years of age. 80% of people get all 4 wisdom teeth, however many people do not have enough space with their arches for them to erupt.

There are varying degrees of wisdom teeth problems and concerns. Some are very easy to remove, and others, particularly if they are still under the surface and require gum removal, can be more difficult due to nerve positioning.

To obtain the most advanced x-ray and imagery of your mouth, we use in-clinic Dental Cone Beam technology, or CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography). From this, we are able to capture 3D images of soft tissues, nerve pathways, teeth and bone.

Research shows that should you require your wisdom teeth to be removed, the younger you are, the better. Patients under 25 have less risk of nerve damage and the process is less traumatic.

  1. We take radiographs immediately at our clinic, which will include an OPG x-ray or CBCT scan to assess the positioning of the teeth.
 
  1. After assessing the level of complexity of the procedure, we discuss with you what is required, and what is the best surgical approach.  This could be in the chair at our clinic, or with general anesthetic at the hospital. 
 
  1. Next we will schedule the time to do the surgery, and provide you will everything you need to know to prepare.
