Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed, but sometimes it is the best option. Here are the common signs you may need wisdom teeth removal and what to expect.
Signs you may need wisdom teeth removed
Pain at the back of the mouth, swelling, difficulty opening your jaw, or repeated infections can all be signs. An X-ray helps us see whether your wisdom teeth are impacted.
What does the procedure involve?
Wisdom teeth removal is carried out under local anaesthetic. We will explain the process and aftercare so you know what to expect.
Recovery
Mild swelling and discomfort for a few days is normal. Rest, soft foods and following our aftercare advice support a smooth recovery.
