Wisdom Tooth Removal in Lakewood

If you’re wisdom teeth are causing pain, discomfort, or swelling, schedule a visit with Lakewood Dental of Colorado for a proper diagnosis to determine whether or not they should be extracted.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction Lakewood

If your wisdom teeth are impacted, it is recommended that you remove them. But keep in mind that failing to remove teeth that are growing in at an angle can cause them to be trapped within your jawbone, resulting in pain and a myriad of complications that may require additional treatment.

Before extracting the teeth, we will take an x-ray to observe the position and condition of your wisdom teeth underneath the gums. When ready for the extraction, a local anesthesia will be administered to numb the area and make the process as comfortable as possible.

Troublesome wisdom teeth can be extracted at any age, but delaying the process can make removal more troublesome and recovery much slower. If you’re in Lakewood or surrounding areas, please call our office at (303) 233-1112 to discuss more about Wisdom Tooth Removal in Lakewood.
