Wisdom Teeth

Extraction of wisdom teeth is often recommended to prevent these potential problems and to maintain overall oral health. However, not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed, and the decision to extract them should be made in consultation with a dentist or oral surgeon based on individual circumstances and oral health needs.

Wisdom teeth check-up

Your dentist will inspect your wisdom teeth during your annual check-up. If anomalies or deviations are discovered, extraction will be strongly recommended. Wisdom tooth extraction is a common procedure with few risks. It can be done under local anaesthesia, sedation, or general anaesthesia.

At Centre Dentaire Olympique, we strive to extract your wisdom teeth quickly and pain-free.

Wisdom tooth extraction

Wisdom teeth tend to erupt around age 18 and can be a source of pain if they lack room, or break through the gum. Failure to extract wisdom teeth in these situations can lead to serious problems. They can damage adjacent teeth, mis-align teeth, or cause infection or periodontitis.
