why remove my wisdom teeth?

Wisdom teeth often cause problems if misaligned or if gum health is compromised. In most cases, wisdom teeth emerge in problematic positions—sideways, partially, or trapped below the gum. If they can’t erupt properly, removal is necessary. The procedure is typically performed under IV sedation, ensuring a comfortable experience. Before surgery, we will discuss sedation options and possible risks like nerve damage or sinus complications.

After extraction, the gums are sutured, and patients rest until ready to go home.
