SE Calgary Wisdom Teeth Extractions

Wisdom teeth grow last, usually in the late teen years or early twenties. For some, this growth is characterized by toothache and inflammation. Yet, for others, third molars appear without any discomfort. Wisdom teeth are usually four in total. However, some people may only grow one, two, three, or none at all.

Sometimes, these teeth may grow inappropriately and put you at risk of various oral complications. This can happen if there's too little space on your jaw bone for the tooth to grow, which causes abnormal development. At East Dental Care, we carry out unexcelled SE Calgary wisdom teeth extractions for those in need of the procedure.

When Should I Get My Wisdom Tooth Removed?

This causes symptoms such as toothache, pain in the lower jaw, headaches, and facial swelling. In such a case, the best decision is to have the tooth extracted.

What Will Happen If I Don't Get My Impacted Tooth Removed?

An impacted wisdom tooth can affect the surrounding teeth and the jaw, leading to serious dental complications. It can cause tooth decay, jaw cyst growth, and gum disease.
