Knowing the signs that wisdom teeth need to come out can help you bypass serious oral health issues. Sometimes, you don’t realize there’s a problem until it’s too late and pain and discomfort set in. Since the most commonly impacted teeth are wisdom teeth, it’s important to recognize the issue early, before infection or pain worsens. If you are already experiencing these symptoms, our oral surgeons experienced with impacted wisdom teeth in Charlottesville can determine whether extraction is the right option for you.

If a problem does arise, it is often possible to have it caught and treated before there are complications that demand this kind of approach. With that said, your wisdom teeth receive a different approach. These teeth, also known as your third molars, create problems because there is often too little space for them. To prevent problems, your Charlottesville, VA oral surgery clinic can effectively extract them before they move into place and create new issues for your smile.
