For painless impacted wisdom teeth removal services in East Cobb, you can trust Dr. Leia Porcaro and the compassionate team at Grateful Dental. Your wisdom teeth are your third set of molars and the last teeth to erupt into your mouth. In many cases, there is not sufficient room in the mouth for these teeth to fully erupt and become useful. In this case, they become impacted. Impacted teeth must be removed in order to prevent serious dental health problems including shifting of the surrounding teeth (orthodontic relapse), infection and even abscessed teeth.
Although wisdom teeth removal has received a bad reputation, it does not have to be a painful procedure. If you come into our office to have your impacted wisdom teeth removed, we will go to great lengths to ensure your comfort before, during and after the procedure. We offer a combination of local anesthesia as well as Nitrous Oxide gas that will keep you relaxed, comfortable and free of pain during your treatment. For most individuals, the recovery period lasts no longer than a few days.
