Why Wisdom Teeth Become a Problem
Most wisdom teeth don’t have enough room to erupt naturally. As a result, they may grow at angles, remain trapped in bone, or partially break through the gums. These situations often lead to infections, cyst formation, pressure on molars, gum inflammation, and difficulty maintaining oral hygiene. Even without pain, impacted wisdom teeth can silently cause long-term damage that is only visible in X-rays.
Signs That Indicate It’s Time for Removal
While some symptoms are obvious, others are subtle. Many patients experience jaw stiffness, swelling behind the molars, gum tenderness, recurring bad breath, or headaches. Others notice food getting trapped behind the last teeth or difficulty opening the mouth fully. If these signs appear, removing wisdom teeth early helps avoid infection, crowding, and bone complications.
Our Approach to Wisdom Teeth Extraction
We focus on accuracy, comfort, and safety at every step.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Imaging
Your evaluation begins with digital X-rays or CBCT imaging. This allows us to map nerve location, root shape, bone density, and the exact position of each wisdom tooth. With this information, we create a precise treatment plan tailored to your comfort and needs.
Simple & Surgical Extractions
Depending on how your wisdom teeth are positioned, we perform either simple extractions for erupted teeth or minimally invasive surgical removal for fully or partially impacted molars. Our techniques are gentle and designed to minimize trauma and speed up recovery.
Comfort-Driven Anesthesia Techniques
Local anesthesia keeps you comfortable throughout the procedure, and our team ensures you feel relaxed and informed at every stage. Pain levels are typically mild and manageable.
Careful Post-Removal Support
After extraction, we give clear step-by-step instructions to promote healthy healing. Most patients recover within a few days, with swelling and discomfort steadily improving each day.

Our office combines experience, advanced imaging, and a patient-first philosophy to ensure safe and predictable outcomes. We take time to explain your condition, discuss what to expect, and tailor the experience to your comfort level. For families and young adults throughout Glendale, CA, we are a trusted provider for wisdom teeth evaluations and surgical care.
Healing Expectations After Extraction
Recovery depends on the level of impaction and individual healing response. Mild swelling, temporary soreness, and chewing limitations are expected for the first 24–48 hours. With proper care, most patients resume normal routines within a week. We remain available for follow-up support to ensure smooth and comfortable healing.
Wisdom Teeth Removal Cost & Payment Options
The cost of removing wisdom teeth varies depending on whether the teeth are erupted or impacted, how many teeth need removal, and whether 3D imaging or sedation is required. We provide transparent treatment plans, help you understand insurance coverage, and offer flexible payment arrangements to make treatment accessible and predictable.
FAQs
Q: Do all wisdom teeth need to be removed?
Not always. If they erupt correctly, are fully functional, and easy to clean, removal may not be necessary. However, most wisdom teeth do pose future risks, which is why professional evaluation is essential.
Q: Is the procedure painful?
The extraction itself is not painful due to effective local anesthesia. Afterward, mild soreness or swelling is normal, but most patients manage recovery comfortably with medication.
Q: How long does the healing take?
Initial healing takes a few days; full tissue recovery may take 2–3 weeks. Impacted cases may require slightly more time.
Q: What happens if I delay removal?
Delaying treatment increases the risk of infections, gum disease, cysts, tooth shifting, and decay on the second molars. Early removal is usually safer and easier.
Q: Can I eat normally after extraction?
Soft foods are recommended for the first day or two. As healing progresses, you can gradually return to your normal diet.
