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
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!
Dr. Martin did an incredible job with my extractions. I didn’t even have any swelling in my jaws after 8 extractions, including 3 wisdom teeth. I have minimal pain in my gums and I have only taken 1 Ibuprofen 800 since yesterday. I might be a rare case, but I would recommend Middle Tennessee Oral & Implant for any oral surgery, because their service is the crème de la crème.
Dr. Hardison is the best. I was very nervous to get my wisdom teeth out and he did an amazing job. I would highly recommend anyone needing a tooth extraction to consider this practice.
Such a professional, helpful and friendly staff! Dr Hardison is wonderful. Everyone helped make a tooth extraction a pleasant experience for my husband! Will definitely be back if further care is needed!
