Wisdom teeth removal

Wisdom teeth removal by Incredible Smiles relieves the discomfort associated with problem wisdom teeth. It also prevents complications that could jeopardise future oral health and general wellbeing.

Wisdom teeth cause multiple issues because most of us don’t have enough room in our mouth for them. This results in wisdom teeth growing in at a skewed angle, only partly emerging, or remaining completely embedded within the gum (impacted).

Because wisdom teeth can be so problematic, we extract them as a preventive measure as well as to resolve existing issues.

Problems wisdom teeth cause

Wisdom teeth can damage adjacent teeth. They’re also difficult to clean, which can result in decay through a build-up of bacteria and plaque.

Other problems triggered by wisdom teeth include:

Besides dental problems, wisdom teeth can also put your overall health at risk.

Complications from troublesome wisdom teeth include infection that can spread via the bloodstream around the body, damaging vital organs. And an irregular bite function due to wisdom teeth may lead to headaches.

Signs your wisdom teeth may need removing

Symptoms indicating wisdom teeth extraction may be necessary include:

The wisdom teeth removal procedure

We’ll take X-rays to determine the development of your wisdom teeth. If they need removing, extraction is straightforward, unless a tooth is impacted.

The procedure typically takes about 20 minutes or less, with local anaesthesia. Sometimes a few stitches are needed.

Recovery usually takes three to four days. We’ll give you some simple instructions to follow to make sure your mouth heals quickly.

If a wisdom tooth is lodged in the gum, removal is more complicated and the procedure and recovery will take longer.

Sedation dentistry is available to make wisdom teeth removal at our North Adelaide dental clinics more comfortable.

I was dreading this visit to a new dentist. I have issues with my jaw and dental visits are always painful. Today that all changed! The dentist was so nice and worked really well with my issue, for the first time I didn't feel any jaw pain 😊👍 Very thorough service and such a detailed report on your dental health. I highly recommend this practice if you need a good dentist who is caring.

Dr Victoria and the wonderful team at incredible smiles, have brought a smile to my face again. They have always been friendly, supportive and so gentle...that you almost don't feel like your at the dentist. My teeth had deteriorated due to medication required, for an extreme illness, that nearly took my life. The team always made me feel comfortable and never judged. Many other dental outlets I have been to do. I have found an amazing dentist, surrounded by an amazing team. The incredible smiles team, have a new client for life. I wish I could upload a photo and show you just how happy I am and how you have all turned my life around, this past year. Don't hesitate...call the team at incredible smiles now!

100th Review!!! This clinic is the absolute best clinic I have ever been to. All the dentists and staff here are so lovely and just show so much compassion and care for the patients and their job! I cannot wait until my next visit, I actually look forward to coming to the dentist! My kids absolute love it here as well they definitely cater to a large variety of patients and do so well. Special mention to the lovely receptionist who informed me about the ability to do a review her name was Lexi I think, she is so efficient at her job and has a lovely demeanour! Look forward to seeing you all soon!
