What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth removal is a dental procedure used to remove the third molars, which are the last teeth to come in at the back of the mouth. These teeth often appear in the late teens or early adult years, but they may need to be removed if they cause pain, pressure, infection, or do not have enough room to grow properly.
At Parkwood Dental, our dentists will examine your mouth and take X-rays to see the position of your wisdom teeth. From there, we can explain whether removal is needed and recommend the best treatment plan for your smile.
