Wisdom teeth removal in Midland.

Wisdom teeth are the last set of adult teeth to come in, usually appearing in your late teens or early twenties. While some wisdom teeth grow in without any problems, others may not have enough room to come in properly.

When wisdom teeth become trapped beneath the gums, grow at an angle, or cause discomfort, removing them may be the best option to protect your oral health.

At Midland Smile Solutions, we understand that having a tooth removed can feel a little overwhelming. Our caring dental team is here to help you feel comfortable, informed, and confident throughout the process.

Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed, but removal may be recommended if they are causing or are likely to cause problems such as:

• Pain or discomfort at the back of your mouth
• Swollen, tender, or irritated gums
• Infection around the wisdom teeth
• Damage to nearby teeth
• Difficulty cleaning the area, leading to cavities or gum problems
• Wisdom teeth that are trapped beneath the gums or unable to grow in properly

Before recommending removal, our dental team will examine your mouth and take X-rays when needed to see the position of your wisdom teeth.

If removal is recommended, we’ll explain the procedure, discuss your options, whether it’s in house or a referral to an oral surgeon, and answer any questions you may have.

Nervous about the procedure? Tell us when you book. We offer nitrous oxide sedation (laughing gas).
