Wisdom Teeth Removal in Glendale, WI

At Sladky Family Dental, we provide expert wisdom teeth removal to ensure your oral health and comfort. Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last set of teeth to develop, often causing problems due to lack of space, impaction, or improper alignment. Removing wisdom teeth is necessary when they pose risks such as pain, infection, cysts, or damage to adjacent teeth. Our extraction process begins with a thorough examination and X-rays to assess the position and condition of your wisdom teeth. During the procedure, we use local anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable, and we carefully remove the teeth to minimize discomfort and recovery time. Post-extraction, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent complications. Trust Sladky Family Dental for safe and efficient wisdom teeth removal, ensuring a healthy and pain-free smile.

  • How do I know if my wisdom teeth need removed?

    You may need your wisdom teeth removed if you experience pain, swelling, or infection in the back of your mouth or if your dentist observes signs of impaction or potential crowding through X-rays. Common indicators include swollen or tender gums, persistent bad breath, difficulty opening your mouth, or pain in your jaw. Additionally, wisdom teeth that grow in at an angle or partially emerge can lead to more serious dental issues like cysts, damage to adjacent teeth, or gum disease. Regular dental check-ups can help monitor the development of your wisdom teeth and determine the best time for removal.

  • How do I relieve wisdom tooth pain?

    To relieve wisdom tooth pain, try over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling, rinse with warm salt water, or use clove oil for natural numbing. Stick to soft foods to avoid irritation. If pain persists, consult your dentist for further evaluation and treatment.

  • What is an impacted wisdom tooth?

    An impacted wisdom tooth is a tooth that fails to fully emerge into the mouth due to a lack of space or improper alignment. This condition can cause the tooth to remain partially or completely trapped beneath the gum line or jawbone. Impacted wisdom teeth can lead to various issues, such as pain, swelling, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. They are often identified through dental X-rays and typically require removal to prevent complications and maintain overall oral health. Regular dental check-ups are essential for monitoring the development of wisdom teeth and determining if extraction is necessary.
