Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Wisdom teeth grow at the back of your gums and are the last teeth to come through. Because of the lack of space, the wisdom teeth can sometimes emerge at an angle or get stuck and only partially emerge. Wisdom teeth that grow like these cases are impacted and would require extraction.

You will be provided with different types of anesthesia depending on your case to eliminate any pain and discomfort.
