Having issues with your wisdom teeth?
As your wisdom teeth come in, they may cause pain and discomfort, or even become infected. When this happens, it is highly recommended that the wisdom teeth are removed. At Holland Cross Dental we make the whole process quick and comfortable, and perform the whole procedure in a safe, controlled environment.

When would you need wisdom teeth removal
Your wisdom teeth are the large molars that grow in the very back of the mouth. There are four wisdom teeth in total, with two growing on the top of your mouth and the other two on the bottom. Typically, wisdom teeth begin to break through in the late teen years to early adult years.
In some cases, your wisdom teeth can cause pain and discomfort when they begin to grow. This is due to the tooth pushing and crowding other teeth. When you have your wisdom teeth safely removed early on, many complications and further issues can be avoided, including:
- An improper bite
- Misalignment
- Overcrowding
- Gum disease
At Holland Cross Dental, our team utilises state-of-the-art technology to gain a better picture of your oral health. Through the use of X-ray imaging, we can identify potential problems that may arise when wisdom teeth break through.
People with large jaws may have no trouble with wisdom teeth, but for many of us, wisdom teeth can cause big problems. With X-ray images, your dentist can observe the progress and position as wisdom teeth come in, and make treatment recommendations.
Wisdom teeth extraction?
Wisdom teeth can grow in many different angles and depths. The positioning of your wisdom teeth warrants different approaches when it comes to removing them. With our commitment to making each visit comfortable and safe, we offer patients an anaesthetic or one of our dental sedation options to help put you at ease.
Post-procedure
Wisdom teeth removal is, in fact, a type of surgery. And with any surgery, there is always a healing process. Your team of dedicated professionals will be with you every step of the way providing you with the best knowledge and advice to ensure your healing process is as comfortable as possible.
