Impaction/Wisdom Tooth Removal
An impacted tooth is a common dental condition occurring when a tooth fails to fully “emerge” from the gums. Most teeth break through the gums in a timely and appropriate fashion, but sometimes misalignment or injury prevents proper growth out of the gums or bones. If these teeth partially emerge they may trap food or bacteria in the soft tissues around them, which causes the gums and surrounding tissues to swell and become red, giving rise to a condition called pericoronitis. The patient usually complains of pain, swelling, difficulty in eating food and sometimes decreased mouth opening.
Better Oral Health with the Right Replacement
Replacing missing teeth prevents long-term issues like shifting teeth, bone deterioration, and bite imbalances. With proper care, dentures and tooth replacements can last for many years, maintaining your oral function and comfort. Regular check-ups help ensure a secure fit and ongoing oral health.
