Understanding the benefits of Wisdom Tooth Extraction by Wichita, KS Dentist

Wisdom teeth can be extremely troublesome for many patients in Wichita, KS. They can be a source of several problems, including decay, impaction, and pain. The team at East Wichita Dentist may suggest wisdom tooth extraction in many instances. This may be to eliminate excruciating pain, provide relief for an impacted tooth, reduce problems associated with the eruption of the teeth, and help improve one’s oral health.

Eliminate Pain
Wisdom teeth are known for being painful before, during, or after they erupt. Because they develop in the back of the mouth, they can cause discomfort when a patient eats, and impacted teeth can be extremely bothersome. By removing the teeth, patients can eliminate the pain they are experiencing.

Relieve Impacted Tooth
Sometimes wisdom teeth cannot erupt because they are impacted. This can hurt tremendously, and the removal of the teeth can improve one’s comfort and pain level.

Reduce Problems after Eruption
There are times the eruption of wisdom teeth can cause existing teeth to shift. If a patient has had orthodontic work to improve their alignment, the eruption of the wisdom teeth can cause misalignment issues. By removing the teeth before they come to the surface of the gums, patients can avoid any disruption in the alignment of their dental arch.

Improve Oral Health
Because wisdom teeth are far back in the rear of the mouth, they can be extremely difficult to brush and floss. This can result in the development of tooth decay and the onset of periodontal disease. With the removal of the teeth, patients can greatly improve their overall oral health and reduce their risk for dental problems.

Patients who have yet to develop their wisdom teeth or who are experiencing discomfort from their eruption may benefit from wisdom tooth extraction. The team at East Wichita Dentist provides safe and effective removal of problem teeth and can assist patients in maintaining their comfort and wellbeing.

If you believe wisdom teeth are causing your discomfort or you are worried about the possibility of impaction, contact East Wichita Dentist today to schedule an initial examination and x-rays.

    Such an amazing dental office! The staff is so nice and welcoming. I felt right at home. They used sedation dentistry on me and it took all the fear from me and it didn't even hurt. I have never met a dental office that is so easy to talk to! Love them
