Wisdom Teeth Q & A

What are wisdom teeth?

Wisdom teeth are the final set of three sets of molars to erupt, usually between the ages of 17 and 21. Typically, there are two wisdom teeth on each side, one on the top and one on the bottom.

When these wisdom teeth develop normally, they help improve the ability to chew and add strength to your bite. When wisdom teeth to don’t develop normally, they may get trapped in the gum or jawbone, causing a condition called impaction.

Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, increase risk for infection, and alter the arrangement of your other teeth. If you have impacted wisdom teeth, they may need to be removed.

Why do my wisdom teeth need to be removed?

Your dentist may choose to remove one or more of your wisdom teeth if your wisdom teeth are impacted, or causing increased risk to your oral health.

You may need to undergo oral surgery and have your wisdom teeth extracted if:

○ They aren’t in the correct position to grow in properly
○ Their position increases the chance for food to be trapped
○ They crowd other teeth and affect proper alignment
○ They cause inflammation or infection in gums or jaw
○ Impaction has caused a cyst to form

The dental professionals at Wall Street Dental Spa are experienced and skilled at diagnosis and treatment of impacted wisdom teeth, as well as identifying future problems that may arise if your wisdom teeth are not removed.

Our Services

Crowns

A dental crown is a prosthetic tooth that’s placed over your natural tooth when it’s damaged or misshapen. Placement of a crown is the most common of all dental restorations and is an effective way to improve your smile and protect your oral health.

Invisalign

Invisalign provides an attractive alternative to traditional orthodontic treatments like braces. It’s a revolutionary new way to straighten teeth. This treatment uses clear, plastic aligners that fit over your teeth to gradually align them over time.

Veneers

Veneers mimic the natural appearance of your teeth with a very thin layer of porcelain. Each veneer is custom-made to fit your individual teeth to ensure flawless results.

Smile Makeover

Wall Street Dental Spa offers partial or complete smile makeovers depending on your unique dental needs and aesthetic goals.

Dental Implants

A dental implant is a metal post that a dentist implants into your jawbone beneath your gums. Essentially, it’s the root of your new tooth. Once the post is in place and your mouth fully heals, a process that typically takes a few weeks, your dentist mounts the new replacement tooth (crown) on the post permanently.

All-On-X Implants

All-On-X implants are a specialized type of dental implant that allows for the restoration of large sections of teeth, up to an entire top or bottom arch.

Tooth Extraction

A tooth extraction, or having your tooth pulled, is a dental procedure where your tooth is entirely removed. This is considered an oral surgery and is done by an oral surgeon, periodontist, or general surgeon.

Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth are the final set of three sets of molars to erupt, usually between the ages of 17 and 21. Typically, there are two wisdom teeth on each side, one on the top and one on the bottom.

Sedation Dentistry (also known as IV Sedation)

Sedation Dentistry (also known as IV Sedation) is a service offered by dental professionals to help you be as relaxed as possible while caring for your teeth and oral health. Using a variety of methods, sedation dentistry can help you experience less anxiety and pain during your dental procedures.

Root Canals

A root canal is a dental treatment that saves and repairs an infected tooth. If your tooth becomes severely infected from inside, one of the experienced dentists at Wall Street Dental Spa removes the bacteria and any dying or dead tissue. This allows them to protect your tooth and take away your pain.

Oral Surgery

Oral surgery refers to a group of procedures which diagnose or treat a variety of oral and dental problems. Oral surgery can be as simple as tooth extraction, or as complex as facial reconstruction after facial trauma.

Emergency Dentistry

You may need emergency dentistry at Wall Street Dental Spa if you have a problem with your teeth or mouth that requires immediate attention to prevent worsening pain, spreading infection, blood loss, or tooth loss.

Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation

Receding gums are when your gums pull or wear away and can potentially expose the roots of your teeth. This can increase your potential for pain, infection, and tooth loss.

Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening gives you results that are far superior to those you can get using over-the-counter whitening products alone. Using professional grade products, your teeth can safely and effectively become up to five shades* brighter than your natural teeth.

TMJ Treatment

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder is a condition affecting the joint between the jaw and the skull. This joint is a complex system of bone, ligament, cartilage, and muscle.

3D Imaging Technology

Three-dimensional (3D) imaging technology is the ability to create 3D radiographic pictures of an object. In dentistry, 3D imaging technology allows dentists to visualize the teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways, and bones of your mouth and jaw.

If you have these symptoms, it’s important your wisdom teeth be evaluated. If extraction is needed, the team at Wall Street Dental Spa helps your experience be as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
