Symptoms to Watch Out For

Wisdom teeth, the third set of molars located at the back of the mouth, typically emerge between late teens and mid-twenties, though timing can vary. While some people may not experience issues, others might need to have them removed. Watch for symptoms such as pain, swelling, infection, or difficulty opening your mouth. If you notice these signs, it’s important to consult with a dentist to determine if extraction is necessary.

When Should Wisdom Teeth Be Removed?

Wisdom teeth may need to be extracted if they come in crooked or are trapped against neighboring teeth. Removal might also be necessary if there’s not enough space, leading to painful crowding or complications. Additionally, if they are positioned in a way that traps food or makes cleaning difficult, it can lead to decay. Impacted wisdom teeth are more prone to infection, making removal a prudent option.

The Wisdom Tooth Removal Process

Wisdom teeth can be extracted by your dentist or might require a surgical procedure by an oral surgeon. After a thorough examination, your dentist will advise on the type of extraction needed. You may have all four teeth removed in a single session or undergo the procedure in stages across multiple appointments.

Examining Your Teeth

Before scheduling your extraction, we conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and jaw. This involves taking X-rays to assess the position of your wisdom teeth and the root structure. This information helps us determine whether a simple extraction or a more complex surgical procedure is needed, ensuring there are no surprises during the process.

The Removal Process

During your initial exam, we’ll provide details on what to expect and how to prepare for the extraction. Depending on your preferences and your doctor’s advice, you’ll receive local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia. We use minimally invasive techniques to ensure a gentle removal process, aiming for your comfort and a quick recovery.

Aftercare

For your comfort and safety, we may request that you bring a friend or family member to assist you at the practice, drive you home, and help you during your recovery. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions, including tips on what to do and what to avoid to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery. If you have any concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us—we’re here to support you.

Cost of Wisdom Tooth Removal in Newmarket

The cost of wisdom tooth removal can vary significantly. With insurance, a simple extraction typically costs between $100 and $200+ per tooth. Without insurance, expect to pay around $200 to $600+ per tooth for a simple extraction.

Since costs depend on your specific treatment needs, it’s challenging to provide an accurate quote online or over the phone.

    There are two main types of extractions:

  • Simple Tooth Extraction: For a fully erupted wisdom tooth without complications, performed by a general dentist with local anesthesia. This is generally less expensive.
  • Surgical Tooth Extraction: For impacted or complicated teeth, requiring more expertise and care. This type is more costly due to its complexity.

For an accurate quote and treatment plan, a personal consultation is necessary. We’ll evaluate your unique situation and discuss the best options for you.
