Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Emergency Dentistry, Parker & Pennington Dentistry

Wisdom tooth extraction is a common procedure to remove third molars. This becomes necessary because of impaction, pain, infection, or crowding. We can perform this surgical procedure under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, as it involves removing gum tissue and sometimes bone to extract the tooth. Generally, wisdom teeth are extracted from patients in their mid to late teens or early twenties.
