Safe, gentle, and stress-free extractions - because removing wisdom teeth doesn’t have to be scary.

At Grace Dental Care, we help you take the fear out of wisdom tooth removal.

Whether your wisdom teeth are causing pain, infections, or crowding, our experienced dental team offers gentle, precise treatment and clear guidance every step of the way.

We’ll assess your teeth, explain your options, and make the process as smooth and comfortable as possible - from first consultation through recovery.

What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth are your third molars - located at the very back of your mouth. They typically erupt between the ages of 17 and 25, but they don’t always arrive smoothly.

When they get stuck (impacted) or don’t fully break through the gums, they can lead to:

  • Swelling, infection, or recurring gum pain

  • Tooth decay or damage to nearby teeth

  • Jaw discomfort or stiffness

  • Difficulty cleaning the area properly

  • Complications with orthodontic treatment

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms - or your teen’s dentist has raised concerns - it might be time to remove the wisdom teeth before they cause further issues.

Do I Need My Wisdom Teeth Removed?

Not all wisdom teeth need to be extracted.

But you may need removal if you have:

  • Ongoing pain or gum infections

  • Crowding or damage to nearby teeth

  • Cavities in a hard-to-reach wisdom tooth

  • Swelling or bad breath from a partially erupted tooth

  • Jaw problems or cysts near the wisdom tooth

  • Plans for orthodontic treatment that require more space

We’ll always start with a full dental exam and X-rays to check positioning and recommend what’s best for your mouth.

What to Expect from the Procedure

At Grace Dental Care, your comfort is our priority.

Depending on the complexity of your case, your wisdom tooth removal may involve:

  • Local anaesthetic (numbing the area)

  • Gently lifting the tooth - or removing a small portion of bone or gum to access it

  • Dissolvable stitches, if needed.

The entire procedure is done in-chair, with a focus on minimising discomfort and promoting quick healing.

Worried About Pain or Recovery?
We’ve Got You.

It’s completely normal to feel a bit nervous - but most of our patients are surprised by how easy the recovery is.

Here's what you can expect post-treatment:

Mild swelling and tenderness for 1–3 days

Soft foods, rest, and pain relief as needed

Clear aftercare instructions to help you heal faster

Most people feel back to normal within a week - and we’re only ever a phone call away if you need us.

In mild cases, we may explore:

  • Antibiotics or saltwater rinses to manage infection

  • Removing gum overgrowth (operculectomy)

  • Coronectomy (removal of the crown only) in rare cases near nerves

But for most patients, especially if there’s pain or risk of damage, full removal is the safest and most effective long-term solution.

Alternatives to Wisdom Tooth Removal

I was dreading the surgery, but the Grace Dental team made it feel easy. They were kind, explained everything, and even checked in the next day. Couldn’t recommend them more.
