Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?

There is rarely enough space in your mouth for your wisdom teeth to erupt unhindered. Our wisdom teeth specialists in Utah offer extractions to remove these teeth from your mouth and prevent problems for your oral health and smile. Give us a call to make your appointment with our oral and maxillofacial surgeons and to learn more about wisdom teeth removals in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Problems with Wisdom Teeth

The third molars, which are commonly called the wisdom teeth, are typically the last teeth to come in. Because they are the last to erupt, there is often not enough room for the wisdom teeth to grow in as they should. When there is not sufficient space for the wisdom teeth, they may become impacted (unable to fully break through the gum tissues and jawbone), or they may grow at an incorrect angle. Wisdom teeth that do not erupt as they can lead to several dental problems, such as:

Disturbing the natural tooth alignment or orthodontic treatment
Damage to the neighboring teeth
Tooth decay
Infection and inflammation in the gums and other tissues
The formation of cysts
Damage to the jawbone

Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Our wisdom teeth specialists may recommend wisdom teeth removal to avoid these serious complications and to keep your smile healthy. We will carefully evaluate your smile, including the positioning of your teeth and wisdom teeth, to determine whether your smile would benefit from wisdom teeth removal. Our dental team will ensure that your wisdom teeth removal procedure is as painless and comfortable as possible.

Opioid-Free Pain Management

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a substance that is created from a person's own blood and is sometimes used as a treatment for dry sockets. A dry socket is a complication that can occur after tooth extraction in which the blood clot that normally forms in the socket is lost or does not form properly. This can cause pain and expose the bone in the socket, which can lead to infection.

PRF has been proven to reduce the pain of dry sockets, allowing for a more steady and normal recovery with little to no pain shortly after the procedure. Aspire will provide instructions for managing dry sockets after the tooth extraction. This may also include taking over-the-counter pain medication, avoiding strenuous activity, and keeping the socket clean.
