Wisdom Teeth ExtractionsLa Verne, CA
Wisdom teeth removal is a common procedure for teenagers and adults that can prevent pain and help protect your teeth and oral health. And usually, it only takes a few days to recover and get back to your routine.
Wisdom teeth need regular exams, professional cleaning, and periodic x-rays because they do not always cause symptoms. So, getting your wisdom teeth evaluated can detect potential issues and prevent problems. Whether you need your wisdom teeth evaluated or removed, if you live in Southern California, Elevated Dentistry makes it comfortable for you in La Verne, California.
What are Wisdom Teeth Extractions?
Wisdom teeth extractions are a common oral surgery procedure used to remove one or more of the third molars located at the back of the mouth. These teeth typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25, often with limited space to grow in properly. This can lead to impaction, crowding, or even infections. At Elevated Dentistry, we take a proactive and compassionate approach to evaluating your wisdom teeth and recommending treatment only when necessary. Our experienced team ensures that each extraction is performed with your comfort and long-term health in mind, using modern techniques and sedation options to make the process as smooth as possible.
Did You Know?
Some people never develop wisdom teeth at all—it’s totally normal!
Local Anesthesia
For many patients, especially those whose surgical needs are more modest in scope, local anesthesia is sufficient for a comfortable experience.
Care that won’t break the bank
We’re committed to making care affordable and accessible. Our team is here to help you finance your same-day crown in a way that fits your lifestyle and budget.
IV Sedation
Some patients prefer to be “put under” for their procedure, something we can provide through IV sedation. This is an especially good option for those whose surgery will be more time-intensive.
The Benefits of Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Prevent Pain and Infections
Impacted wisdom teeth can press against other teeth or become partially erupted, creating pockets where bacteria thrive. This often leads to gum infections, jaw stiffness, and tooth pain. By removing these problematic teeth early, you can avoid chronic discomfort and potential damage to surrounding areas. At Elevated Dentistry, we prioritize prevention to protect your oral health before problems arise.
Protect Your Smile Alignment
Wisdom teeth can shift your other teeth out of alignment, especially if you’ve had orthodontic work. By extracting them early, we can help maintain the straight, healthy smile you’ve worked so hard to achieve. Our dentists carefully assess your unique smile structure to determine if extraction is the best course of action for long-term harmony.
Easy Recovery With Expert Care
Our team is skilled in making wisdom teeth extractions as easy and comfortable as possible. We offer sedation options to help you relax and detailed post-op guidance to support fast healing. Many of our patients return to normal routines within just a few days. At Elevated Dentistry, your safety, comfort, and recovery are always our top priorities.
The Wisdom Teeth Extraction Process
Comprehensive Exam & Imaging
We begin with a full dental exam and digital X-rays to assess the position of your wisdom teeth and determine if extraction is necessary. Our La Verne team will explain your options and answer any questions you may have, making sure you feel confident and informed every step of the way.
Personalized Treatment Plan
If extraction is the best choice, we’ll create a tailored treatment plan, including sedation options to ensure maximum comfort. We take time to review your health history and go over exactly what to expect so you feel fully prepared for your appointment.
Comfortable Extraction & Recovery
On the day of the procedure, your dentist will gently extract the wisdom teeth using the least invasive method possible. Afterward, we’ll provide clear instructions for care and healing. Most patients experience only minor swelling and can manage discomfort easily with over-the-counter medications or prescribed options.
