Wisdom teeth Extractions Tysons Corner: At SmilePerfectors we care about your oral health. While wisdom teeth, located in the back of the mouth, are valuable assets to have, in certain cases they can cause several oral conditions. These may include misalignment, impacting of the gums, and painful crowding. In order to prevent these conditions, it becomes necessary to remove wisdom teeth.

Your local family dentists at SmilePerfectors can provide expert wisdom tooth extraction in Tysons Corner and many of other locations. We will advise wisdom tooth extraction only in absolute necessary cases. As always, our goal is to ensure your smile stays healthy and pain-free.

Prior to the extraction, your SmilePerfectors oral surgeon will explain the procedure in detail. In short, the wisdom tooth extraction procedure involves applying a local anesthetic around the area of the tooth being extracted, and if necessary, followed by a general anesthetic. Surrounding gum tissue is precisely trimmed, allowing for a smooth extraction. Once extracted, the surgeon will stitch the gum to cover the area in question and allow the natural healing process to begin. Patients will be provided with gauze pads, special instructions for rinsing, any necessary prescriptions and other information to reduce the risk of infection.
