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. Or, you may need to have an extraction to insert a bridge or prepare for an implant. Whatever the case may be, whether you need an extraction due to crowding and pain, impaction of your wisdom teeth, or preparation for implant surgery, the dentists at Plateau Village Dental Centre are here to help!
