Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars to emerge, usually between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people have no issues, many experience pain, swelling, and infections due to lack of space in the jaw. At Brite Dental, we provide expert wisdom tooth assessments and extractions to prevent and treat complications.

Common Wisdom Tooth Problems

🦷 Impaction – When wisdom teeth don’t have enough space to emerge properly, they become impacted, causing pain, swelling, and infections.

🦷 Crowding – If there isn’t enough room, wisdom teeth can push against other teeth, leading to misalignment.

🦷 Infections & Decay – Partially erupted wisdom teeth create hard-to-clean areas, increasing the risk of tooth decay and gum infections.

Symptoms of Wisdom Tooth Issues

⚡ Jaw pain or swelling
⚡ Red, swollen, or bleeding gums
⚡ Difficulty opening the mouth
⚡ Bad breath or an unpleasant taste

Wisdom Tooth Treatment Options

✅ Monitoring – If the wisdom teeth aren’t causing immediate problems, regular dental check-ups ensure any potential issues are detected early.

✅ Wisdom Tooth Removal – If wisdom teeth are impacted, painful, or causing infections, extraction is the best solution. At Brite Dental, we provide gentle and effective wisdom tooth removal, ensuring a comfortable experience with minimal discomfort.

✅ Pain Relief & Aftercare – After extraction, we provide guidance on pain management, healing, and oral hygiene to prevent complications.

When to See a Dentist

If you’re experiencing pain, swelling, or discomfort, it’s important to have your wisdom teeth checked. Early intervention can prevent severe infections and misalignment.
