Impacted Wisdom Teeth Removal in San Jose CA Area

If you live near San Jose, California, and need wisdom teeth removal, Dr. Natalie Provenzano and her team can help. When you know more about wisdom teeth, you can also learn about the benefits of having wisdom teeth removed.

What Are Wisdom Teeth

Also known as the “third molars,” your wisdom teeth are the last teeth you develop. Generally, wisdom teeth erupt through the gum line during an individual’s late teenage years or early 20s.

Reasons to Remove Wisdom Teeth

In rare cases, wisdom teeth emergence can be painful but will not necessarily cause any damage. However, most people experience excessive pain, and their existing teeth can become overcrowded. An even scarier situation is when wisdom teeth are impacted. In this case, surgical teeth extraction is required to alleviate pain or potential future problems and ensure the rest of the patient’s teeth aren’t overly crowded.

Here are some reasons to remove wisdom teeth.

  • You’ll have fewer orthodontic problems if wisdom teeth don’t overly crowd your teeth.
  • Nearby teeth will experience less damage and crowding.
  • There is a decreased risk of oral disease and inflammation
  • There is a reduced risk of orofacial pain.
  • When wisdom teeth are removed, you may have a reduced risk of cysts, tumors, and jaw damage.

Wisdom Teeth Removal Process

There are two ways to remove wisdom teeth:

  • Simple extraction
  • Oral surgery

Simple Extraction

With a simple extraction, wisdom teeth are removed once they come through the gum line. Your dentist can have your wisdom teeth removed in just a few minutes. Most patients are sedated and anesthetized for minimal pain and discomfort.

Surgical Extraction

If wisdom teeth are beneath the gum line or they’ve started breaking down, a surgical extraction may be required. Your dentist will cut into the gum tissue and manually remove the wisdom teeth from the jawbone.
