When wisdom teeth do not have enough room to erupt, or if infection is a constant occurrence, they may become a problem for you as they grow and develop in each corner of your mouth. In such cases, extraction is often the best solution.
Depending on your individual situation, some wisdom teeth can simply be extracted in our practice under local anaesthesia, while impacted teeth will often require a minor surgical procedure. An examination at Ashburton Family Dental will help us explain the options to suit your own personal situation.
