Welcome to Astoria Dental Group, where your dental health and comfort are our top priorities. If you’re experiencing pain, discomfort, or other issues with your wisdom teeth, our expert team in Astoria, New York, is here to help. Our comprehensive wisdom teeth removal services ensure a safe, effective, and comfortable experience tailored to your unique needs.
At Astoria Dental Group, we understand that wisdom teeth removal can be a daunting prospect, which is why we prioritize patient education and comfort throughout the process. Our highly skilled oral surgeons utilize the latest techniques and technology to perform extractions with precision, minimizing discomfort and promoting a swift recovery. We take the time to thoroughly assess your situation, discuss your treatment options, and answer any questions you may have, ensuring you feel confident and well-informed every step of the way.
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. For many people, these teeth can cause significant problems, including:
Sometimes, there isn’t enough room in your mouth for an additional set of molars, leading to overcrowding and misalignment of existing teeth.
Wisdom teeth can become trapped (impacted) beneath the gums, causing pain and potential infection.
Due to their position, wisdom teeth are often hard to clean, making them more susceptible to cavities and gum disease.
After tooth loss, it can feel like the gaps in your smile are the only things others see when they look at you. By filling in for missing teeth, implant-supported restorations can give you a complete smile again. You can enjoy a renewed sense of confidence in your appearance and the ability to smile freely in any situation.
Implant placement requires a sufficient amount of existing jaw tissue. If your jaw has deteriorated from tooth loss, we can perform a preparatory bone graft or sinus lift to restore density. Your dentist can determine whether you need preparatory work during your consultation.
We tailor our approach to meet your specific needs, ensuring a comfortable and positive experience.
Our commitment to your health extends beyond the procedure with thorough post-operative care and support.
Our advanced anesthesia options and expert surgical techniques significantly reduce discomfort during the procedure. While some post-operative pain and swelling are normal, these can be effectively managed with prescribed medication and proper care.
Recovery time varies from person to person, but most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days. Complete healing may take a few weeks.
Failing to remove problematic wisdom teeth can lead to severe pain, infection, tooth decay, gum disease, and damage to adjacent teeth.
