What Is Wisdom Tooth Removal?
The final two molars, which commonly develop in the late teen years, are called wisdom teeth. Situated in the farthest corners of each arch, wisdom teeth, also known as the third molars, often lack proper room to comfortably develop, are hard to keep clean, and often need to be extracted to maintain general oral wellness. These teeth might be impacted (trapped under the gums or jawbone), poorly aligned, or unable to form as they should, causing several oral disorders. Dr. Mark Haridson and Dr. Jeff Warden offer wisdom tooth removal in Middle Tennessee Oral and Implant Surgery to increase dental health and safeguard against jaw pain and decay. When you or someone in your family has bothersome or unerupted wisdom teeth, call one of our offices in Murfreesboro or Smyrna, TN to learn about your options.
What Is the Wisdom Teeth Removal Process?
The wisdom teeth removal process is designed to be straightforward and comfortable with the help of modern techniques. On the day of the procedure, anesthesia options such as local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia are administered to ensure you feel at ease. Once numb, we will make a small incision in the gum to access the tooth. If necessary, the tooth may be divided into smaller sections for easier removal. After the tooth is extracted, the area is cleaned, and stitches may be placed to aid in healing. You can expect to rest comfortably after the procedure with detailed instructions for post-care.
What Are the Benefits of Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth removal offers numerous benefits for your oral health and overall well-being:
- Prevents overcrowding
- Reduces risk of infection
- Protects adjacent teeth
- Eases discomfort
- Improves oral hygiene
Wisdom Tooth Extractions Reviews
dr.hardison very good job on tooth extraction. his cute assistant was the best
I got my wisdom teeth out a few days ago with Dr. Hardison and it was an extremely pleasant experience! He and his staff were incredibly kind. When I woke up from the anesthesia, apparently all I could talk about was how nice my nurse was!
Wonderful work! I got my 4 wisdom teeth removed this Tuesday and it was so quick and the pain relief was instant! I had been suffering for months and they were able to get me scheduled quickly. Staff was so kind and professional. They ensured I knew the scope of the work and my options. I was so nervous but they were by my side the whole way. I was in and out in under an hour! I definitely recommend them to all! Thank you so much!!!
I am waiting on the tooth extraction. I renewed all the required paper work, had my x-ray and general consultation with the nurse and Dr. Warden, waitijg on Dr. Rhim to approve the surgery. I still have my bad tooth ache. Thank you! Everything went great except for my not taking the pre-med as required. As luck would have it the staff found a place for me at Smyrna on the 26th allowing my tooth to be extracted. Thanks to the staff and Dr. Warden, all is well. Thank you
I absolutely recommend Middle Tennessee Oral & Implant surgery!! I had my wisdom tooth removal here. The process was seamless! The staff is so amazing and knowledgable. Everyone was so friendly and made my experience so smooth! They called to check in on me the day after my procedure and it shows just how genuine they are!!
