Whether you need to schedule wisdom teeth extractions or another dental surgery, our on-site dentists at My Dentist at Morgan Creek in South Surrey can meet with you and determine which oral surgery options are good choices for your teeth.
Please note that while 95% of oral surgery procedures are typically conducted at our dental clinic, there may be instances where we would refer you to an Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon upon careful evaluation.
Many people are born with too many teeth and too little space in their mouth. If your jawbone is too small to accommodate wisdom teeth, your teeth may become impacted and trapped. Impacted and trapped teeth cause pain and the roots may disrupt neighboring teeth.
Fortunately, our team of general dentists can remove extra teeth and prevent pain. Removal is one of the easiest preventative measures for wisdom teeth complications.
Our team will examine your teeth to determine which ones (if any) need removal. If you have enough space in your mouth, we won’t remove the wisdom teeth. Instead, you can schedule regular visits to ensure your wisdom teeth haven’t moved.
While many people will have no trouble with their wisdom teeth, these teeth are often removed to prevent more serious issues like an abscess or cyst. These teeth generally begin to surface in the late teens, to early 20s, and many times, they become impacted as they develop, growing sideways into the other teeth or angled forward.
Wisdom teeth may erupt from the gum line or may still be set in the jaw. Teeth that are only partially erupted may present other issues as these teeth are difficult to clean and care for. Extractions are typically handled by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Some extractions are done as a preventative measure to safeguard against changes in the alignment of the teeth during orthodontics or more serious complications.
Our team is able to meet the needs of South Surrey’s residents. We have a large office that can accommodate you, so you don’t have to wait long for service. We also offer extended hours so you can fit an appointment into your busy schedule.
If you would like more information about our wisdom teeth extractions and dental surgery in South Surrey, contact us at (604) 542-0123 or fill in our contact form. We will set up a consultation so you can visit our team. After we have completed the x-rays, we will schedule a future appointment.
Dry socket: While dry socket will generally heal on its own, consult your dentist to expedite the healing process and to ensure there is no risk of infection.
Nerve injury: The lingual and inferior alveolar nerves run near the surgical site and supply sensation and taste to the area. While nerve injuries are often temporary, nerve damage should never be overlooked, and you should contact your dentist as soon as possible.
Damage to prior dental work: If your procedure has damaged any prior dental work, contact your dentist. This is a risk involved during any surgical procedure.
Damage to surrounding areas: While it is rare, an injury may occur around the sinus cavity or jaw depending on how the tooth was extracted. Any injury should be treated as a medical emergency. Again this too is an inherent risk involved in oral surgery.
Your experience with oral surgery will vary based on how complicated the extraction performed is.
We’ll help you find a payment plan that fits your budget.
