What Is Wisdom Tooth Removal?

Wisdom tooth removal is one of the most common oral surgery procedures. Wisdom teeth, or third molars, typically emerge during adolescence or early adulthood. When there isn't enough space in your mouth, these teeth can become impacted, causing pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth.

An impacted wisdom tooth is one that doesn't have enough room to develop normally, becoming trapped beneath the gum line or growing at an awkward angle. This can lead to a range of dental problems including infection, cysts, damage to neighboring teeth, and severe discomfort.

At Forever Dental and Skin, Dr. Murray Pratt provides expert wisdom tooth extractions using modern techniques and sedation options to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Not all wisdom teeth need removal—only those causing problems or likely to cause problems in the future.

FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How painful is wisdom tooth removal?

During the procedure, you won't feel pain due to anaesthesia. After, you'll experience some discomfort and swelling, typically managed with prescribed pain medication. Most patients report pain is less severe than expected, decreasing significantly after the first 3-4 days.

How long does wisdom tooth removal take?

Simple extraction: 15-30 minutes. Surgical removal of impacted tooth: 30-60 minutes. Multiple teeth: 1-2 hours total.

When can I return to work or school?

Most take 1-2 days off for simple extractions and 2-3 days for surgical extractions. Avoid strenuous physical activity for at least a week.

What can I eat after wisdom tooth removal?

First 24-48 hours: soft foods and liquids like smoothies, yoghurt, lukewarm soup, ice cream, and mashed potatoes. Avoid hot drinks, alcohol, crunchy foods, and straws. Gradually reintroduce firmer foods after a few days.

Do all four wisdom teeth need to be removed at once?

Not necessarily. Some patients only have one or two problematic teeth. However, removing all four at once means only one recovery period.

What is dry socket and how can I avoid it?

Dry socket occurs when the blood clot dislodges or fails to form. Affects 2-5% of patients. Avoid smoking, using straws, spitting forcefully, and rinsing vigorously for the first 24-48 hours.

Will I need someone to drive me home?

Yes, if you receive IV sedation or general anaesthetic. With local anaesthetic only, you can drive yourself.

When should I have my wisdom teeth removed?

Ideally in late teens or early twenties when roots aren't fully developed. However, wisdom teeth causing symptoms should be removed at any age.

How much does wisdom tooth removal cost?

Costs vary based on complexity, type of anaesthesia, and number of teeth. Flexible payment plans available.
