Wisdom Teeth Removal by Your Trusted Wisdom Teeth Doctor
Wisdom teeth are the last molars to emerge at the back of the mouth, typically appearing in their late teens or early twenties. When these teeth don’t have enough space to come in correctly, they can lead to overcrowding, impaction, infections, and gum disease. Such issues often cause discomfort, make chewing difficult, and, if left untreated, can lead to more serious health problems.
If your wisdom teeth are already causing discomfort or show signs of potential issues, our dental team may recommend extraction to protect your oral health. At Perry Smiles, we combine advanced techniques with personalized care to make your wisdom tooth extraction as smooth as possible.
