Whether you’re experiencing discomfort, crowding, or preparing for future orthodontic care, we're here to help you protect your oral health with skill, care, and confidence.
Why Might Wisdom Teeth Need to Be Removed?
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to emerge, usually appearing between the late teens and mid-twenties.
While some wisdom teeth grow in without issue, many can become problematic because there simply isn’t enough space to accommodate them.
Common reasons for extraction include:
Impacted Teeth (trapped under the gum or bone)
Infection or Inflammation (due to partial eruption)
Crowding or Shifting of Other Teeth
Decay or Gum Disease (difficult-to-clean areas)
Cysts or Damage to Adjacent Teeth
Removing problematic wisdom teeth early can prevent future complications and protect your overall oral health.
Your Wisdom Tooth Journey
Step 1
Personalised Consultation and Imaging
We begin with a thorough consultation and advanced imaging (such as digital OPG scans or CBCT if needed) to assess the position and health of your wisdom teeth
Step 2
Tailored Treatment Planning
We develop a personalised plan for your extraction, explaining your options clearly — whether it’s simple removal or a more complex surgical procedure.
Step 3
Gentle, Comfortable Extraction
Using modern techniques, local anaesthesia, and optional sedation for extra comfort, we carefully and efficiently remove the wisdom teeth with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues.
Step 4
Supportive Aftercare and Healing
You'll receive clear aftercare instructions and ongoing support from our team to ensure a smooth recovery, with follow-up checks as needed.
Sedation Options for Your Comfort
We offer a range of sedation choices, including twilight sedation, to help make your experience as relaxed and stress-free as possible.
Your comfort and peace of mind are our top priorities every step of the way.
What to Expect After Wisdom Tooth Removal
Some mild swelling, tenderness, or stiffness is normal and typically resolves within a few days.
We’ll provide detailed home care instructions, including advice on diet, oral hygiene, and managing any temporary discomfort.
Most patients are able to return to school, work, or daily activities within a few days, depending on the complexity of the procedure.
Healing is usually straightforward when guided by expert care and proper aftercare support.
