In these cases, wisdom teeth removal may be the best way to get your smile back in shape. At Arc Dental Surrey Hills, our experience, gentle techniques, calming sleep dentistry options and high-tech equipment make removing impacted or problematic wisdom teeth safe, smooth and stress-free.

What is wisdom teeth removal?

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of teeth to appear, usually between the ages of 17 and 25 years. Wisdom teeth removal is often required when there isn’t enough space in the jaw for the teeth to erupt properly, leading them to become impacted. Impacted wisdom teeth can result in severe pain, difficulty chewing, bad breath, decay, infection, cysts, gum inflammation, and damage to nearby teeth.

Wisdom teeth surgery​ can be performed by either a dentist or an oral surgeon. A local anaesthetic is used to numb the mouth, and patients may also choose to have the procedure done under IV sedation or general anaesthesia.

This treatment is suitable for those with:

  • Painful, impacted wisdom teeth that cannot fully emerge from the gums
  • Infected wisdom teeth
  • Crowded teeth due to wisdom teeth eruption or impaction
  • Shifting teeth or bite issues due to impacted wisdom teeth

Benefits of wisdom teeth removal:

  • Relieves wisdom teeth pain or discomfort
  • Prevents future dental issues such as decay, infection, gum disease and bite or alignment issues
  • Reduces risk of damage to other teeth

Safe, stress-free and state-of-the-art.

Wise up about wisdom teeth removal.

1

How do I know if I need my wisdom teeth removed?

Wisdom teeth extraction is typically required when there isn't enough room in the jaw for them to erupt properly. A partially erupted or impacted tooth can cause pain, and may lead to infection, dental crowding, tooth damage, damage to gum tissue or other serious complications.

The best way to find out if wisdom tooth extraction is right for you is to see us for a wisdom teeth check up​ in Surrey Hills. During this appointment, we will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and oral health take scans and x-rays to determine if your wisdom teeth are likely to impact your dental health and cause future issues. Based on this assessment, we recommend whether you need your wisdom teeth removed.

If you’re new to Arc Dental and it’s been more than six months since your last dental check-up, be sure to check out our New Patient Offer, where you can book a comprehensive Examination and Hygiene Appointment for just $279.

How painful is wisdom teeth removal?

Our wisdom teeth surgery in Surrey Hills is typically performed under local anaesthesia so you will not feel any pain or discomfort during the procedure. Anxious patients may also opt for sedation options, such as oral sedation, IV sedation or general anaesthesia, to help them feel more relaxed and comfortable during surgical removal.

Our experienced dentists also use precise and gentle techniques when removing wisdom teeth, alongside the latest dental technology and equipment, to help minimise discomfort and promote a smooth and speedy recovery.

How long is the wisdom teeth removal recovery time?

It’s normal to experience some discomfort, swelling and bruising for a few days after wisdom teeth extraction. This can be easily managed with over-the-counter pain medication. To help your recovery after wisdom teeth removal​, it’s important that you follow your dental professional’s after care instructions closely, including:

  • Rest and avoid strenuous activity for at least a few days after surgery
  • Apply ice packs to the outside of the cheek and jaw to reduce swelling
  • Eat a soft food diet for at least a week  (don't eat hard food as it may irritate the extraction site)
  • Keep the surgical site clean with gentle rinsing

After your wisdom teeth procedure, we will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery and ensure optimal healing.

Is wisdom teeth extraction covered by Medicare?

Like most dental treatments, wisdom teeth extractions are not typically covered by Medicare. However, if you have private health insurance with dental extras, a portion of your wisdom tooth treatment costs may be covered, depending on your policy.
