Wisdom Tooth Extraction Carthage
The Wise Choice for a Healthy Smile
While our paleolithic ancestors benefited greatly from wisdom teeth, today they often cause more problems than they solve. Without enough room in the mouth, third molars can lead to orthodontic issues like crowding, increase the risk of infection, or become impacted below the gumline. In these cases, we may recommend wisdom tooth extraction in Carthage to keep your oral health right where it needs to be.

The Wisdom Tooth Extraction Process
If your wisdom teeth have erupted properly, we can use a more traditional extraction technique. This involves gently lifting them from your gums, wiggling them free of any connective tissue, and removing them from your mouth.
If your wisdom teeth are impacted, we’ll need to access them by creating a small opening in the gum tissue. This will allow our team to more carefully remove the tooth by splitting it into smaller pieces. Then, we’ll close the opening and place clean gauze on the area to allow it to heal.
