Wisdom Teeth Removal Tahmoor
Wisdom Teeth Removal Tahmoor
At Tahmoor Dental, we specialise in safe and gentle wisdom teeth removal for patients across Wollondilly Shire. Wisdom teeth often cause pain, swelling, or misalignment when there isn’t enough room for them to erupt properly. Our experienced team provides tailored treatment to prevent ongoing issues and protect your smile.
What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth are the third molars located at the back of your mouth. They usually appear between the ages of 17 and 25, but not everyone has enough space for them. When they become impacted or grow at an angle, they can lead to discomfort, gum infection, and damage to neighbouring teeth. Removal is often the best way to maintain long-term oral health.
The Wisdom Teeth Removal Process
At Tahmoor Dental, your comfort is our priority. The process usually includes:
-
Examination and X-rays – to assess the position of your wisdom teeth.
-
Anaesthetic or sedation – keeping you comfortable and stress-free.
-
Surgical removal – making a small incision and removing the tooth carefully.
-
Post-treatment advice – to help you heal quickly and comfortably.
Mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising is common for a few days. To support healing:
-
Apply ice packs to reduce swelling
-
Take prescribed medication as directed
-
Stick to soft foods
-
Avoid smoking and alcohol during recovery
-
Follow our cleaning instructions carefully
Wisdom Teeth Removal FAQs
Is wisdom teeth removal painful?
You won’t feel pain during the procedure thanks to anaesthetic. Some tenderness is normal afterward, but it can be managed with medication.
How long is recovery?
Most patients recover within 7–10 days, depending on how many teeth were removed.
Do all wisdom teeth need to be removed?
Not always — if they are healthy and fully erupted, removal isn’t necessary. We only recommend removal if they pose a risk to your oral health.
