Wisdom Teeth Removal In Aurora

Wisdom Teeth Removal In Aurora

At Dana Dental, we prioritize preserving your natural teeth whenever possible. However, in cases of severe damage, decay, or impaction, and dental bonding can no longer work, extraction may be the best solution to protect your oral health. This is especially true for wisdom teeth, which often cause pain, crowding, or infection if they do not erupt properly. If you are experiencing discomfort or have been advised to have a tooth removed, our team provides wisdom teeth removal in Aurora with a focus on comfort and care.

Types of tooth extractions

Our dentist assesses each case individually to determine which extraction method would be the most appropriate based on the condition of the tooth.

Simple extraction

A dentist performs a simple extraction when the affected tooth is fully visible above the gum line. In this procedure:
  • A local anesthetic is applied to numb the area.
  • The dentist carefully loosens the tooth before removing it with forceps.
  • Generally, the process is quick and involves minimal recovery time.

Surgical extraction

A surgical extraction is necessary for teeth that are partially or fully trapped beneath the gums, such as impacted wisdom teeth. This procedure involves:

Why wisdom teeth removal is necessary

Wisdom teeth, otherwise called third molars, often cause complications if they do not have enough space to erupt properly. Some reasons for wisdom teeth removal in Aurora include:
  • Pain and discomfort – Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth can lead to persistent pain and pressure.
  • Infection and swelling – Trapped food and bacteria around impacted wisdom teeth can result in infections, swelling, and gum disease.
  • Crowding and misalignment – Sometimes, wisdom teeth push against neighbouring teeth, leading to alignment issues.
  • Cyst formation – In some cases, impacted wisdom teeth can develop cysts, which may damage surrounding bone and tissue.

Wisdom tooth extraction cost and considerations

Several factors influence wisdom tooth extraction costs, including the difficulty of the procedure (requiring more time and skill for impacted teeth), the number of teeth needing extraction (multiple extractions costing more than single extractions), and the type of sedation (IV sedation being more expensive than local anesthesia). We will thoroughly review all costs with you during your consultation, exploring various payment methods such as insurance coverage or financing plans to suit your needs.

What to expect after a tooth extraction

Following an extraction, proper aftercare is crucial to ensure smooth healing. Patients are advised to:
  • Rest and avoid strenuous activities for the first 24 hours.
  • Apply ice packs to minimize swelling.
  • Eat soft foods and avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy items.
  • Follow prescribed pain management and oral hygiene instructions.

FAQs About Wisdom Teeth Removal in Aurora

1. How do I know if I need my wisdom teeth removed?
If you’re experiencing pain, swelling, infections, or crowding in the back of your mouth, it’s often a sign that your wisdom teeth need extraction.

2. Is wisdom teeth removal painful?
The procedure itself is done under local anesthesia or sedation, so you won’t feel pain. Some soreness afterward is normal but manageable with medication and aftercare.

3. How much does wisdom teeth removal cost?
Costs vary depending on whether the extraction is simple or surgical, the number of teeth removed, and the type of sedation used. A consultation will give you an accurate estimate.

5. Can all four wisdom teeth be removed at once?
Yes, many patients choose to have all four removed in one procedure to minimize overall recovery time.

6. What can I eat after wisdom teeth removal?
Soft foods like yogurt, smoothies, mashed potatoes, and soup are best for the first few days. Avoid hard, crunchy, or spicy foods until fully healed.
