Wisdom Tooth Extraction is a dental procedure to remove the third molars located at the very back of the mouth. These teeth often appear during late teens or early twenties and can sometimes grow in positions that cause discomfort, crowding, or difficulty maintaining oral hygiene. Removing problematic wisdom teeth can prevent pain, reduce the risk of infections such as gum inflammation or abscesses, and help maintain proper alignment of surrounding teeth.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction also supports long-term oral health by minimising the chances of cyst formation or damage to the jawbone. Additional benefits include improved chewing efficiency, reduction of persistent jaw pressure, and easier cleaning of remaining teeth. The procedure promotes overall comfort and helps preserve the health of adjacent teeth, allowing smoother function of the mouth for everyday activities.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction begins with consultation by the dentist at our affiliated clinic. During this consultation, a thorough oral examination and imaging, such as X-rays, are performed to determine the position and condition of the wisdom tooth.
The extraction procedure itself can be simple or surgical, depending on the tooth’s position. Local anesthesia may be administered to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. Impacted tooth may require a small incision in the gum and minor removal of surrounding bone to allow complete extraction.

After the tooth is removed, the extraction site is cleaned thoroughly, and dissolvable sutures may be applied to support healing. Gauze is placed over the area to help a blood clot form, which is essential for recovery. Downtime is minimal, with most patients returning to normal daily activities within 3 to 5 days.
