Wisdom Tooth Extraction – Safe & Gentle Removal

Our experienced team of dentists at Harris Park Dental is skilled in performing wisdom tooth extractions using the latest techniques and technologies. We understand that the thought of undergoing oral surgery can be daunting, which is why we prioritize your comfort and well-being throughout the entire process.

At Harris Park Dental, we offer safe and gentle wisdom tooth extractions to relieve pain, prevent complications, and protect your overall oral health. Wisdom teeth (third molars) often emerge in the late teens or early twenties and can cause problems if there isn’t enough room in the mouth or if they grow in at an angle.

Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth can lead to infection, crowding, cysts, or damage to nearby teeth. Our experienced team uses precise techniques and local anaesthesia to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience from start to finish.

Health Tips & Info

We provide safe, gentle wisdom tooth extractions to relieve pain, prevent infection, and protect your long-term oral health—using modern techniques for a smooth recovery.

Why do wisdom teeth need to be removed?

Wisdom teeth are often removed because they’re impacted, growing at the wrong angle, or there isn’t enough space in the jaw—leading to pain, infection, or damage to other teeth.

Is wisdom tooth extraction painful?

The procedure itself is not painful, as local anaesthesia is used to numb the area. Some discomfort and swelling are normal afterward, but it’s usually manageable with over-the-counter or prescribed medication.

Can I eat after the procedure?

Yes, but start with soft foods like soup, yogurt, and mashed potatoes. Avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy foods for a few days and follow all aftercare instructions.

Is wisdom tooth removal safe for teenagers?

Yes. In fact, it’s often recommended to remove wisdom teeth during the late teens or early twenties, as the roots are not fully developed, making recovery easier.
