When Should Wisdom Teeth Be Removed?

Not every wisdom tooth needs to be removed. In many cases, healthy wisdom teeth that have fully erupted and can be cleaned effectively may simply be monitored during routine dental examinations.

However, removal may be recommended if your wisdom teeth are causing symptoms or are likely to affect your oral health.

Your dentist may recommend treatment if you experience:

Impacted Wisdom Teeth

Impacted wisdom teeth remain trapped beneath the gum or jawbone, either partially or completely. They can contribute to pain, swelling, infection and damage to neighbouring teeth if left untreated.

Pain or Swelling

Persistent pain at the back of your mouth, swollen gums or discomfort when chewing may indicate that your wisdom teeth require professional assessment.

Recurrent Infection

Partially erupted wisdom teeth can create spaces where food particles and bacteria become trapped, increasing the likelihood of repeated infections and inflammation around the affected tooth.

Pressure on Nearby Teeth

As wisdom teeth develop, they may place pressure on adjacent teeth or contribute to other dental concerns. A clinical examination and X-rays help determine whether removal is appropriate.

Tooth Decay or Gum Disease

Because wisdom teeth are often difficult to reach when brushing and flossing, they’re more susceptible to decay and gum disease. If these problems can’t be managed effectively, removal may be recommended.

Why Early Assessment Is Important

You don’t have to wait until severe pain develops before seeking advice.

A consultation allows your dentist to:

Early assessment helps you make informed decisions and allows treatment to be planned before symptoms become more complex.

Wisdom Teeth Removal Procedures

Every wisdom tooth is different, which means the treatment required can vary from one patient to another. Some wisdom teeth can be removed using a straightforward in-chair extraction, while others require a minor surgical procedure.

Before recommending treatment, your dentist will perform a comprehensive examination and review your dental X-rays to assess the position of your wisdom teeth, their relationship to surrounding structures and the complexity of the procedure.

Your personalised treatment plan will be explained during your consultation, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before treatment begins.

Simple Wisdom Tooth Extraction

If your wisdom tooth has fully erupted and is easily accessible, it may be suitable for a simple extraction performed under local anaesthetic.

Simple extractions are commonly completed in the dental chair and generally involve a shorter treatment and recovery time.

This option may be appropriate when the tooth:

Surgical Wisdom Teeth Removal

Some wisdom teeth remain partially or completely impacted beneath the gums or jawbone. In these situations, a surgical approach may be recommended.

During surgical removal, your dentist carefully accesses the tooth before removing it using techniques appropriate for its position and complexity.

Surgical removal may be recommended when a wisdom tooth is:

Your dentist will explain why a surgical approach is recommended and answer any questions before treatment begins.

Sedation & Anaesthesia Options

Your comfort is an important part of your treatment. Depending on the complexity of your procedure and your individual circumstances, different anaesthetic options may be available.

These include:

Local Anaesthetic

Local anaesthetic numbs the treatment area while you remain awake throughout the procedure. It is commonly used for many simple and surgical wisdom tooth extractions.

IV Sedation

IV sedation helps you feel deeply relaxed during treatment while local anaesthetic provides pain control. Many patients remember very little of the procedure afterwards.

General Anaesthesia

For some complex procedures, treatment may be carried out under general anaesthesia in an accredited hospital or day surgery, where you'll remain completely asleep throughout the procedure.

Not sure which option is right for you?

Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate anaesthetic after assessing your wisdom teeth, medical history and treatment requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wisdom teeth are commonly assessed during the late teenage years or early adulthood, but the most appropriate timing varies from person to person. Your dentist will recommend treatment based on your clinical examination, symptoms and dental X-rays.

Your treatment will be performed using an appropriate anaesthetic, which helps prevent pain during the procedure. Depending on the type of anaesthetic used, you may still feel pressure or movement, but you shouldn’t experience pain.

Not always. Some patients only require one or two wisdom teeth to be removed, while others may benefit from removing all four. Your dentist will recommend treatment based on your individual circumstances.

Most patients begin feeling significantly better within several days, although complete healing of the extraction site takes longer. Recovery depends on the complexity of your procedure and your individual healing response.

If you’ve received IV sedation or general anaesthesia, you’ll need someone to take you home and shouldn’t drive afterwards. If you’ve only had local anaesthetic, your dentist will advise whether it’s appropriate for you to drive.

Soft foods are generally recommended during the initial recovery period. Your dentist will provide specific dietary advice based on your procedure and recovery progress.

Your preferences are important and will be discussed during your consultation. However, the most appropriate anaesthetic is recommended based on factors such as the position of your wisdom teeth, the complexity of the procedure, your medical history and your individual treatment needs.

Your dentist will assess your wisdom teeth, review your dental X-rays, discuss your medical history and consider the complexity of the planned procedure. Based on this assessment, they’ll recommend the anaesthetic option that is most appropriate for your treatment.

All medical and dental procedures carry some level of risk. Before treatment, your dentist will review your medical history, explain the recommended anaesthetic option and discuss any relevant considerations so you can make an informed decision.

This depends on the type of anaesthetic used and the complexity of your procedure. Patients who receive IV sedation or general anaesthesia are generally advised to rest for the remainder of the day, while recovery recommendations after local anaesthetic will vary based on the individual treatment performed. Your dentist will provide personalised advice before you leave the clinic.
