WISDOM TOOTH
EXTRACTION
Removing wisdom teeth can prevent pain, infection, and dental complications. Professional care ensures the procedure is safe, comfortable, and effective.
Wisdom teeth are the last molars to develop, usually between ages 16 and 26. While not everyone requires extraction, impacted or problematic wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, crowding, decay, or jaw complications.
At Accent Dental Care, we assess each patient’s teeth carefully using diagnostic imaging to determine the best course of action. Components of our wisdom tooth extraction service include a thorough oral examination, imaging, anaesthesia selection, surgical removal, and post-operative care, ensuring a safe and smooth procedure for every patient.
