Wisdom teeth removal is a common dental procedure that many individuals undergo, typically in their late teens or early twenties. Our dentist and experienced dental team provide expert wisdom teeth removal services in Longmont, Colorado, prioritizing your comfort and safety throughout the process.
Understanding Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last set of teeth to develop. Sometimes these teeth can become impacted, fail to emerge properly or cause overcrowding. Removal is often recommended to prevent potential problems such as:
- Pain and Discomfort: As wisdom teeth grow, they can cause pain and discomfort, especially if they become impacted
- Infection or Gum Disease: Partially erupted wisdom teeth can be hard to clean, leading to infection or gum disease
- Tooth Decay: Crowding can make brushing and flossing difficult, increasing the risk of decay in adjacent teeth
- Cyst Formation: Impacted wisdom teeth can lead to the formation of cysts, potentially damaging jawbones and teeth
