Frequently Asked Questions

How can removing wisdom teeth be beneficial?

Prevent Severe Pain and Discomfort

Wisdom teeth extraction can relieve severe pain caused by impacted or overcrowded teeth. Removing these troublesome teeth stops them from pressing on healthy teeth and causing additional discomfort or damage.

Protect Oral Health

Leaving wisdom teeth untreated can lead to infections or gum disease, which affects overall oral health. Removal reduces these risks, keeping your gums and teeth healthy.

Avoid Complications with Multiple Teeth

Crowded wisdom teeth can push on multiple teeth, leading to misalignment or a missing tooth. Extraction prevents these issues, helping your smile stay straight and balanced.

Enhance Overall Dental Care

As part of comprehensive dental services, wisdom teeth removal supports other dental treatments by creating space and preventing long-term complications, ensuring a healthier mouth for years to come.

What are the signs that I need my wisdom teeth removed?

Common signs that your wisdom teeth may need to be removed include pain, swelling, infection, or discomfort in the back of your mouth. Additionally, if you experience difficulty opening your mouth or notice your gums are swollen or bleeding, it’s important to consult with your dentist. Impacted wisdom teeth can lead to more serious complications if left untreated.

How long does the recovery take after wisdom teeth removal?

The recovery period after wisdom teeth removal typically takes around 1 to 2 weeks for most patients. During this time, you may experience swelling and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication and cold compresses. It’s essential to follow your dentist’s aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

Can I eat after wisdom teeth removal?

After wisdom teeth removal, it’s recommended to stick to a soft food diet for the first few days. Avoid hard, crunchy, or hot foods, as these can irritate the extraction site. Opt for foods like soup, smoothies, and mashed potatoes while you heal.

Will I be awake during wisdom teeth removal?

You will not be awake during the procedure unless the removal is straightforward and done with local anaesthesia. Most patients receive either local anaesthesia, sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on the complexity of the surgery and the patient’s preferences. Your dentist will discuss the best option for you prior to the procedure.

How do I prepare for wisdom teeth removal?

Before your wisdom teeth removal, your dentist will provide specific instructions based on your chosen anaesthesia method. Generally, you’ll be advised not to eat or drink for 6-8 hours prior to the procedure if you’re having general anaesthesia or sedation. You may also need to arrange for a friend or family member to drive you home after the surgery.

What payment methods does your clinic accept?

Our clinic accepts several payment methods to make your visits convenient. These include cash, credit cards, HICAPS, and the National Dental Plan. We also offer flexible options like Denticare, Access My Super, and Afterpay for added ease. Our payment options cover a range of treatments, including wisdom teeth removal. Greensborough residents can enjoy flexible and easy payment plans to access quality care.

Note: Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
