Wisdom teeth sound like they might be useful, but in spite of their philosophicalname, they can often do more harm than good. For some patients, wisdom teethcan overcrowd the mouth, sometimes leading to cysts or oral infections.
Schedule an appointmentLuckily our Schererville Family Dentistry team is skilled in the art of wisdom teeth removal, performing the procedure efficiently and safely so that patients don’t have to worry about health problems down the road. The procedure is straight forward and has a fairly quick recovery time so that you can get right back into your routine with a happy and healthy smile.
For most people, wisdom teeth simply aren’t necessary. They’re difficult to reach, making proper brushing and flossing difficult. Leaving them in can cause wisdom tooth pain and make them more prone to developing cavities once they emerge through the gums.
Many people have impacted wisdom teeth, which means the teeth grow in at a slant. They run into other teeth or bone and can’t fully emerge. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain and can eventually damage your other teeth.
If you’re experiencing wisdom tooth pain, get in touch with our Schererville, IN office. When we remove your wisdom teeth, we numb the area, so you shouldn’t feel any pain, removing the wisdom teeth and stitching up the area.
If you have any questions about impacted wisdom teeth removal, don’t hesitate to ask. We’ll tell you exactly how to prepare for the procedure. We’ll also give you detailed instructions on how to care for your mouth after the procedure so you can stay infection-free, helping your mouth heal.
