Third molar extractions, commonly referred to as wisdom teeth removals, are a routine dental procedures performed when these late-developing teeth become problematic or fail to emerge properly. At Keys Dental Specialists, our highly skilled dentists specialize in performing safe and efficient wisdom teeth extractions, ensuring your comfort and health throughout the entire process.
Wisdom teeth typically appear in the late teens or early twenties. However, many individuals' mouths lack sufficient space for these teeth to fully emerge or align correctly. This can lead to impaction, where the teeth become trapped beneath the gum line or within the jawbone. Impacted wisdom teeth can result in various complications, including discomfort, inflammation, bacterial infections, overcrowding of nearby teeth, and potential damage to adjacent teeth or jaw structures.
Prior to a wisdom teeth extraction, our expert dental team in Key West will conduct a comprehensive examination, including advanced diagnostic imaging, to assess the position and condition of your wisdom teeth. We offer various anesthesia and sedation options tailored to your needs and the complexity of the procedure, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout.
During the extraction, our Key West dentists will create a small opening in the gum tissue to access the wisdom tooth. For fully erupted teeth, extraction can often be accomplished using specialized dental instruments. In cases of impaction or partial eruption, we may need to remove a small amount of surrounding bone to safely extract the tooth. Following the removal, we thoroughly clean the extraction site and may place dissolvable sutures to promote optimal healing.
