Wisdom Teeth Extraction
Wisdom teeth extractions are commonly performed to prevent or alleviate issues like crowding, pain, and potential cysts or infections caused by impacted teeth. With advanced imaging and sedation options, the procedure is made as comfortable and efficient as possible to support a smooth recovery.
Learn About Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Wisdom tooth removal is often necessary for patients in their late teens or early twenties. These “third molars” usually begin to emerge between ages 17 and 25, but when there isn’t enough room, they can become impacted, leading to discomfort in the mouth and jaw. Extraction is commonly the best option for relief. At Mattydale Oral & Facial Surgery, Dr. Matthews specializes in wisdom tooth extractions, providing expert care and compassionate attention. Our team uses gentle, minimally invasive techniques to ensure a comfortable procedure and a smooth recovery.

Impacted Wisdom Teeth
If left untreated, impacted wisdom teeth can pose significant risks to your oral health. Beyond crowding and damaging nearby teeth, impacted wisdom teeth can lead to gum inflammation, jaw pain and stiffness, and even the formation of cysts or tumors around the tooth. We recommend early removal to prevent these complications and help maintain optimal oral health. With our advanced Cone Beam CT scanner, we capture precise images of your teeth and jaw, allowing us to remove even high-risk or complex wisdom teeth with minimal discomfort and maximum care.
