Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Cedar Park, TX
At Cedar Park Dental Wellness, we are well-versed in the complexities and concerns surrounding wisdom teeth, commonly known as third molars. These teeth, which emerge last in the dental sequence, typically develop fully between the ages of 17 and 25. However, due to limited space in the dental arch, they may become impacted, leading to a range of symptoms that could necessitate surgical intervention.
Why Wisdom Teeth Removal is Essential: For many, wisdom teeth that remain beneath the gum line or become impacted can lead to discomfort and health issues. It's estimated that 90% of Americans have at least one impacted wisdom tooth. Symptoms can include infection, pain, tooth decay, and more. To prevent these complications, our experts at Cedar Park Dental Wellness strongly advocate for the removal of impacted wisdom teeth, particularly when they pose a risk to your oral health.
Our Approach to Wisdom Teeth Extraction: We offer a patient-centered approach to wisdom teeth removal, ensuring minimal discomfort through options like local anesthesia, oral sedation, nitrous oxide, or a combination of all for complex cases. For less severe impactions, local anesthesia may suffice. Post-procedure care is of utmost importance, and we provide detailed guidance on recovery, including dietary recommendations and pain management.

Understanding the Types of Wisdom Teeth Removal

  • No Impaction: The tooth is visible above the jawbone and gums.
  • Soft Tissue Impaction: The tooth is covered by gums, requiring a small incision for access.
  • Partial Bony Impaction: The tooth is partially encased in the jawbone, necessitating bone removal for extraction.
  • Complete Bony Impaction: The tooth is fully encased in the jawbone, requiring extensive removal for access.

What to Expect During the Procedure
Your comfort is our priority. Depending on the type of extraction, you'll receive appropriate anesthesia to ensure a pain-free experience. Our skilled dental team, led by Dr. Regina Yunusov, is equipped to handle all types of extractions, from simple to complex procedures involving severely impacted and even infected teeth.




Post-Procedure Care and Risks
Following your wisdom teeth removal, you may experience discomfort, swelling, and pain, which can be easily managed with cold compresses and prescribed medications. For most extractions, including wisdom teeth removals, we use PRF (Platelet-Rich-Fibrin) to aid healing and minimize the risk of postoperative complications. StellaLife VEGA Oral Care Recovery Kit is recommended to aid in healing and managing discomfort. While complications are rare, we're fully prepared to address any issues promptly, ensuring your swift recovery.
