Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Why Take Them Out?

Do you have pain in the back of your mouth? Are your wisdom teeth giving you trouble? Then you might have to remove them.

Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars in the back of your mouth. They usually come out between the ages of 17 and 25, but potential issues can be seen on X-rays before they appear.

Some people need to have their wisdom teeth removed to reduce the risk of them affecting other teeth or causing discomfort. Hutt Dental Hub can remove your wisdom teeth gently to prevent any further issues.

Why Take Your Wisdom Teeth Out?

Most people have their wisdom teeth removed for one of these reasons:

  • They’re impacted. Because they’re so far back in your mouth, wisdom teeth may not come out normally. They can be trapped in your jawbone or gums, which can be painful.
  • They come out at the wrong angle. They may press against your other teeth and cause them to move, which will impact your function and aesthetics.
  • Your mouth isn’t big enough. Your jaw has no room for an extra set of molars.
  • You have cavities or gum disease. You may not be able to clean your wisdom teeth with your toothbrush properly, and they can cause further infection.

Our dentists are experienced in wisdom tooth removal and will assess whether extraction is appropriate for your situation. With local anaesthetic, Our dentists will carefully assess and remove your wisdom teeth with the aim of preventing further complications. In some complex cases, we may refer you to a specialist oral surgeon for your safety and best outcome.
