Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are often removed to prevent complications like crowding, infections, or pain. At Still Waters Dentistry, we work with the best specialists in the area to ensure you have a smooth and comfortable experience as we maintain your oral health.
When do wisdom teeth come in?
Wisdom teeth usually emerge between the ages of 17 and 25, although the timing can vary for each individual. Regular dental checkups are essential for monitoring their development and determining if removal is needed to protect your oral health.
How long does wisdom teeth removal take?
After wisdom teeth removal, wait at least an hour before eating and begin with soft foods such as yogurt, applesauce, or mashed potatoes. Avoid using straws, as the suction can dislodge the blood clot and delay healing. Gradually reintroduce solid foods as your recovery progresses, typically within a few days to a week. Follow the personalized aftercare instructions from Still Waters Dentistry to ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
