Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Houston, TX

A patient's last two molars, which often develop during the later adolescent years, are called wisdom teeth. Located at the back of each arch, wisdom teeth, which are also known as the third molars, do not typically have enough room to comfortably emerge, are difficult to keep healthy, and may require an extraction to maintain overall oral health. Wisdom teeth can be impacted (stuck in the gum tissues or jawbone), misaligned, or unable to develop all the way, leading to many dental problems. Dr. Palmer offers wisdom teeth extractions for Houston, TX individuals to improve oral health and protect against jaw pain and decay. If you or your teen have problematic or unerupted wisdom teeth, schedule an appointment at Palmer Dental Group of Houston to learn more about your treatment options.

Palmer Dental Group of Houston performs wisdom teeth extractions while the patient is under mild anesthesia; however, this procedure may also be completed with oral-conscious or IV sedation services to increase relaxation. Most cases of wisdom teeth extractions require an excision technique, specifically if the teeth are impacted, have arched roots, or are tightly held within the jawbone tissue. After Dr. Palmer makes an incision in the gum tissues to access the impacted molar, he may split it into parts, which allows for a simpler extraction. Depending on your unique needs, each of the wisdom teeth may be taken out during a single procedure. Sutures may be used to protect the removal site and promote healing. Our team will give you aftercare guidelines to follow in the days after your procedure.

While wisdom teeth extractions may seem daunting, this dental procedure offers several benefits for your oral health. The benefits include:

  • Prevents overcrowding
  • Reduces pain and discomfort
  • Prevents infection
  • Protects against cysts and tumors
  • Improves oral hygiene
