Avoid Pain & Complications With Wisdom Teeth Removal in New York

Are you feeling pain in the back of your mouth? Mid-Manhattan Oral Surgery can help. Pesky wisdom teeth might be the culprit. Many people need their wisdom teeth removed in their late teens or early 20s. Our surgeons have performed countless wisdom teeth procedures.

While some people never have issues with these teeth, others experience pain, infection, and other complications. Getting them removed can prevent these problems before they start and protect your overall oral health. Benefits of wisdom teeth removal in New York include:

  • Elimination of jaw pain and headaches caused by impacted wisdom teeth
  • Less crowding in your mouth, which helps prevent your other teeth from shifting and becoming crooked
  • Reduced risk of painful infections and swelling that can make eating and talking difficult
  • Prevention of damage to nearby healthy teeth that wisdom teeth often push against
  • Lower chance of developing cysts or tumors that can form around problem wisdom teeth
  • Fewer cavities since wisdom teeth are hard to clean and prone to decay

If you think you need yours removed, call us today at 212-918-1859 to schedule a consultation. Our experienced team has helped many patients get through their wisdom teeth extraction comfortably. We can perform coronectomies, a surgical procedure where the tooth’s crown is removed but roots remain in place. This may be recommended for impacted wisdom teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wisdom Teeth Removal

Why have wisdom teeth removed?

Wisdom teeth usually come in between the ages of 17 and 25. If there is sufficient room for them to emerge in the proper place and position, then they may not need removal. However, if they come in improperly and put your other teeth at risk, they will need to be removed to protect your overall oral health.

What is recovery like after wisdom teeth removal?

You can expect to experience tenderness and swelling for several days. You’ll want to relax and avoid any type of strenuous physical activity. We’ll offer you instructions on diet, dental hygiene, and other elements of recovery. Swishing gently with lukewarm salt water will ease discomfort and help clean your mouth out. Complete recovery takes up to two weeks.

Does wisdom teeth removal hurt?

There shouldn’t be any pain during the tooth removal itself, since we thoroughly numb your mouth with anesthesia. You also have the choice of receiving IV sedation. There may be some soreness and discomfort for several days following the surgery. We might offer pain medication, and we’ll give you instructions to help ensure a pleasant recovery.
