What is meant by wisdom tooth extraction?

Wisdom teeth are the third molars that are found on each side of the upper and lower jaw. They are the last teeth to erupt and often do not erupt but remain below the gumline. Impacted, or crowded, teeth that have not erupted cause pain and swelling. The dentist or oral and maxillofacial surgeon will extract the tooth for the patients' comfort. The extraction of a wisdom tooth takes from ten minutes to one hour.

Are wisdom teeth extractions painful?

Local anaesthesia is injected before a wisdom tooth is extracted. Patients will not feel pain during the procedure. Anxious patients are given a sedative before the procedure.

What is the recovery time after wisdom teeth extractions?

It takes up to three weeks to completely recover from a wisdom tooth extraction.

When can I travel by air after having wisdom teeth extracted?

Patients can travel by air two days after having wisdom teeth extracted, after consulting with their dentist or surgeon.

What care is required after having wisdom teeth extracted?

Patients should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should gently rinse their mouth with salt water frequently. They should not rinse their mouths or brush their teeth vigorously for a few days. Patients should sleep with their head elevated. They should avoid vigorous exercise and lifting heavy objects for at least a week. They should use ice packs to reduce any swelling. They should not eat very hot or very cold food for a few days.

Had a great experience. The staff is so friendly and professional. I was totally satisfied with the treatment, and the results. I would and do recommend this dental office to all my friends and family and anyone who is looking for a great experience with dental needs.

What truly sets this team apart is their passion for their work, which goes beyond financial motivaAleksandr, US, 09 04 25

Dr. Josef Cordero and his wife, Dr. Telma Rubinstein, bring nearly half of century of experience to their dental practice. Their daughter, Dr. Nadine Cordero contributes unstoppable energy to the team. They are supported by other dedicated members, including Dr. Coraline Nunes, Dr. Roberto Hernandes and Dr. Alejandro Montero. What truly sets this team apart is their passion for their work, which goes beyond financial motivation. In our opinion, this is one of the best dental family businesses in the world. With modern equipment and dental lab inside what can be done in U.S. for years, in Dr. Cordero's office can be done in days with better quality and around a half of the U.S. crazy prices. My wife and I highly recommend them. Our review is based not only on our own opinion, but also on the options of other patients who we interacted with while getting treatment there for one week in April 2025.

You never leave the facility without teethKim, US, 08 02 26

This facility was a referral from a family member. My husband had his full upper/lower implants 4 years ago. Now, last year (2025) was my turn. Consultation went better than I imagined. I thought I would have needed bone added. Didn't need!!! Then all my teeth that were left were extracted. They knock you out for this--- the only way to have this done. Implants were placed along with temporary teeth that day. You never leave the facility without teeth. Long story short---absolutely, and I mean absolutely, NO PAIN!! I thought all others were lying, but it's true, no pain at all. Here's the before pic, after pic, and Dr Marco pic with all 3 of us. Highly recommend, supportive staff, courteous staff, all together top notch at the restaurant, hotel, and Clinic.

Dentist Consultation free
A free dental consultation and diagnostic appointment provides an initial assessment where Dr. Alain evaluates your oral health at no cost. Typically, this appointment includes a discussion of any concerns or symptoms the patient may have, followed by a visual examination of the mouth, teeth, and gums. The dentist may also use diagnostic tools, like X-rays, to get a closer look at areas of concern, assess overall dental health, and identify issues that aren’t visible to the naked eye, such as cavities between teeth or underlying jawbone problems. During the consultation, Dr. Alain will explain findings, answer questions, and offer treatment recommendations tailored to the patient’s needs. He may also provide cost estimates and outline options for future treatments. This appointment is an excellent opportunity for patients to get a professional opinion on their oral health, understand potential treatment options, and learn about preventative care without upfront costs.
