Take Care of Your Smile With Wisdom Teeth Removal in Glendale

For many people, wisdom teeth (also called third molars) come through with no problems, usually between the ages of 17 and 25. These fortunate people have plenty of room in their mouths for these teeth to emerge. For others, however, wisdom teeth can become impacted under other teeth, come in at the wrong angle, or only partially emerge. That's when wisdom teeth removal in Glendale is necessary.

At Glendale Gentle Dentistry, we will extract your wisdom teeth and help you feel better. The removal will prevent problems with your teeth and gums. It will make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene and prevent tooth decay. You'll gain peace of mind about your oral health. If your wisdom teeth are bothering you or you suspect they need to be removed, we'll get you into the office as soon as possible. You'll find us located on North 43rd Avenue, near its intersection with West Olive Avenue.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wisdom Teeth Removal

Why have wisdom teeth removed?

Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to come in. By that point, your jaw may not have enough space for them to emerge properly. This can create overcrowding and pain. Sometimes, wisdom teeth are impacted or only partially emerge, which can make you more susceptible to tooth decay and gum disease if bacteria gets trapped there. Your dentist can let you know whether wisdom teeth removal is the best option for your dental health.

What is recovery like after wisdom teeth removal?

While you should feel much better within a day or two, it can take up to two weeks to fully recover. During this time you may experience mild discomfort and swelling. You can speed your recovery by avoiding smoking and alcohol and eating soft foods for the first few days. Rinsing gently with warm salt water also helps lessen gum tenderness and inflammation.

Does wisdom teeth removal hurt?

There shouldn't be any pain during the tooth removal itself since we thoroughly numb your mouth with anesthesia. You also have the choice of receiving dental sedation. There may be some soreness and discomfort for several days following the surgery. We might offer pain medication, and we'll give you instructions to help ensure a pleasant recovery.
