For many Woden residents, dental decisions are about more than quick fixes. They’re about choosing care that feels dependable, well-explained, and built for long-term health. Wisdom teeth problems, whether sudden or gradual, can cause ongoing discomfort, repeated infections, or damage to nearby teeth if left untreated. Carefully planned wisdom teeth removal helps address these issues while protecting the rest of your smile.
Wisdom teeth often become problematic when there isn’t enough space for them to erupt fully. This can lead to partial eruption, impaction, gum inflammation, or infection that keeps returning. At Dentist at Dickson, our dentists take the time to assess tooth position, jaw structure, and surrounding tissues to determine whether wisdom tooth extraction is necessary and how it can be performed safely. For those seeking a trusted dentist in Woden, clarity and continuity of care are essential.
Every wisdom tooth case is different. Some teeth can be removed using straightforward extraction techniques, while impacted or angled wisdom teeth may require more advanced approaches such as flap and sectioning or transalveolar extraction to ensure safe removal. Our expert dentists in Woden always aim to resolve the issue while preserving healthy bone and neighbouring teeth.
When a wisdom tooth is positioned close to a nerve, a coronectomy may be recommended to reduce the risk of nerve-related complications. Modern techniques such as piezoelectric surgery and laser-assisted methods may also be used where appropriate to minimise tissue trauma, reduce swelling, and support smoother healing. These carefully chosen techniques help ensure predictable outcomes and long-term comfort.
Whether you’re dealing with recurring symptoms or want to address wisdom teeth removal before they cause bigger issues, a structured approach helps provide peace of mind and lasting results.
