Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth often cause pain, infection, cysts, or damage to neighboring teeth. Wisdom teeth removal surgically extracts these third molars – eliminating discomfort, reducing risks of decay or crowding, and protecting your overall oral health and alignment.

Why Wisdom Teeth Removal Is Recommended

Even asymptomatic wisdom teeth can shift other teeth, cause decay, or lead to painful infections. Early removal in teens or young adults is simpler with less risk – preventing costly future issues and preserving jawbone and bite stability.

Who Should Consider Wisdom Teeth Removal?

Teens, young adults, or anyone with impacted, partially erupted, or infected wisdom teeth benefit most. X-rays during checkups often reveal the need. At OxyDental Noho, we’ll evaluate your unique anatomy and timing to minimize discomfort and recovery.

The Wisdom Teeth Removal Procedure

Under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia (your choice), we make a small incision if needed, gently remove the tooth, and close the site – typically completed in 30-90 minutes depending on complexity and number of teeth.

Recovery and Healing Timeline

Swelling and mild discomfort peak at 2-3 days and resolve within a week. A soft diet, ice packs, and prescribed medications help. Full healing takes 2-4 weeks, with follow-up to ensure no issues.

Benefits for Long-Term Oral Health

Removal prevents cysts, tumors, decay on adjacent teeth, and misalignment. Patients enjoy pain-free chewing, easier hygiene, and peace of mind – often avoiding braces or future extractions later in life.
