Wisdom Teeth Removal & Extraction Auckland
Reasons For Wisdom Teeth Removal
Impaction
One of the most common reasons for wisdom teeth removal is impaction. When there isn't enough space in the jaw for these molars to grow properly, they can become impacted, causing pain and discomfort.
Overcrowding
Wisdom teeth can lead to overcrowding, shifting the alignment of existing teeth. This can affect your bite and may necessitate removal.
Infection
Impacted wisdom teeth can create pockets where bacteria can thrive, leading to infections and inflammation.
Modern Painless Techniques
With the advances in technology and health, we’re able to provide you with a relatively pain-free experience.
The numbing gel helps make things pain-free. Applied around the needed area and left for a few minutes to work its magic, it makes the injection feel like nothing.
You also have an option to complete the extraction under sedation - we have a medically trained doctor that provides sedation treatment.
If this is something you’d prefer not to have, or have more questions about. We can answer those in your free initial consultation and go over available options.
