Wisdom Teeth Removal

At Pleasanton Dental in San Ramon, California we know that wisdom teeth removal can be worrisome. While wisdom teeth removal is extremely common in the teenage years, we treat each patient uniquely and make sure they get the level of care that makes them feel comfortable. We will take x-rays and do an oral examination to evaluate everything from the position, the growth, and if the teeth are impacted. Extraction is usually recommended, and it is usually the best option more often than not.

X-Rays & Examinations

An oral examination allows us to evaluate the wisdom teeth and prepare for extraction or alternative methods of treatment as needed. X-rays also help show us if future problems with wisdom teeth can occur. The earlier this evaluation is done allows for better care and more comfortable options for the patient.

Removal & Extraction

Once x-rays and the examination have been done, and depending upon each patient’s situation extraction is normally recommended. Our team of hygienists and dentists will go over all your options and help prepare you for the operation. Your comfort is extremely important to us so we will suggest different levels of care from sedation to pain management. Wisdom teeth extraction is normally a very quick and easy surgery, and we want you to be fully comfortable. There a number of reasons why people choose to get their wisdom teeth removed, including:
