Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom tooth extraction is a surgical procedure to remove one or more wisdom teeth — the four permanent adult teeth located at the back corners of your mouth on the top and bottom.

If a wisdom tooth doesn’t have room to grow (impacted wisdom tooth), resulting in pain, infection or other dental problems, you’ll likely need to have it pulled. Wisdom tooth extraction may be done by a dentist or an oral surgeon.

To prevent potential future problems, some dentists and oral surgeons recommend wisdom tooth extraction even if impacted teeth aren’t currently causing problems. To prevent potential future problems, some dentists and oral surgeons recommend wisdom tooth extraction even if impacted teeth aren’t currently causing problems. Wisdom teeth can sometimes cause pain, infection, or crowding of your other teeth. A simple exam is all that you need to find out whether or not your wisdom teeth need to be removed.

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last permanent teeth to appear (erupt) in the mouth. These teeth usually appear between the ages of 17 and 25. Some people never develop wisdom teeth. For others, wisdom teeth erupt normally — just as their other molars did — and cause no problems. Many people develop impacted wisdom teeth — teeth that don’t have enough room to erupt into the mouth or develop normally. Impacted wisdom teeth may erupt only partially or not at all.

An impacted wisdom tooth may:

Grow at an angle toward the next tooth (second molar)
Grow at an angle toward the back of the mouth
Grow at a right angle to the other teeth, as if the wisdom tooth is “lying down” within the jawbone
Grow straight up or down like other teeth but stay trapped within the jawbone

What Our Clients Say

Elnaz Mirzaei

I was so lucky to find the amazing Brilliant Dentistry and receive their amazing services. Dr. Shiva, one of the great dentists at Brilliant Dentistry, was the only one who was able to monitor and save one of my teeth, while the other dentists told me there won’t be any hope to save that teeth and only solution for it will be extraction.

Dr. Shiva, by far, is the best caring dentist that I ever had. She is caring, gentle, knowledgeable, and very friendly. I could not be happier after the two sessions with her. The front desk, Vahid, is amazing with clients and makes you feel at home.

I would give this place a 10 star if I could. I had a great experience myself, but finally decided to take my 5 year old, after trying 2 paediatric dentistry. Dr Shiva was so patient with her, my daughter got a filling with no drugs and no laughing gas, and for the first time, a good experience with a dentist.

My family tried many dental offices, but you can't find any dental offices like Brilliant Dentistry. the Dentist is very patient and professional. they also do not charge you extra for the work; this is very important to me , I believe health care professionals should focus on people's health rather than the money.

I have been Dr. Shiva’s patient for many years. She is kind, caring and above all a professional dentist who knows what she is doing. I have had to change my doctors many many times but once I found Dr. Shiva I knew I would follow her anywhere she goes. If you need a doctor to keep for a lifetime stop looking because it won’t get any better than this!
