Wisdom tooth removal is a common procedure to extract one or more wisdom teeth, which are the last set of molars at the back of your mouth. These teeth often cause issues like overcrowding, pain, and infections due to limited space.
Removing them can prevent complications, protect your oral health, and relieve discomfort. Whether it’s a simple extraction or a surgical procedure, getting your wisdom teeth removed is often the best solution for maintaining a healthy smile.

Wisdom teeth should be removed when they cause pain, crowding, or infection. Dentists often recommend removal during your late teens or early twenties to avoid complications.
Recovery typically takes about 1-2 weeks. Following aftercare instructions, including rest, soft foods, and proper hygiene, ensures smooth healing.
Leaving impacted wisdom teeth untreated can lead to infections, damage to surrounding teeth, and alignment issues.
Stick to soft foods like soups, yogurt, and smoothies for the first few days to avoid irritating the extraction site. Avoid hard, crunchy, or hot foods that could cause discomfort.
