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.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction $300 - $350
Wisdom tooth extraction is a dental procedure performed to remove one or more of the third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth. These teeth are located at the back of the mouth and typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. Wisdom teeth may need to be extracted if they become impacted, meaning they do not have enough space to emerge properly, or if they cause discomfort, infection, or misalignment of other teeth. The extraction can be simple or complicated depending on the position and development of the wisdom teeth. In many cases, a surgical extraction is required, which involves making an incision in the gum tissue and possibly removing some bone to access the tooth. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, and in some cases, sedation may be administered to help the patient relax. Post-operative care includes managing swelling, pain, and following instructions for a smooth recovery.
Simple Extractions $100 - $120
A simple extraction is a dental procedure in which a tooth is removed from the mouth without the need for complex surgical techniques. This type of extraction is typically performed when a tooth is visibly damaged, decayed, or no longer functional and does not require a surgical incision to be removed. The dentist uses specialized instruments to loosen the tooth from its socket and then gently removes it. Simple extractions are usually performed under local anesthesia to numb the area, and the procedure is relatively quick with minimal post-operative discomfort.
Surgical Extractions $150 - $200
A complicated extraction, also known as a surgical extraction, is a more complex dental procedure used to remove a tooth that is not easily accessible or visible, often due to factors such as impaction, broken roots, or abnormal positioning. This procedure is typically required for teeth that are partially erupted, have curved roots, or are deeply embedded in the jawbone. During a complicated extraction, the dentist or oral surgeon may need to make an incision in the gum tissue, and possibly remove some surrounding bone, to access and extract the tooth. The area is usually numbed with local anesthesia, and sometimes sedation may be used. After the extraction, stitches may be needed to close the incision, and a recovery period is required to ensure proper healing and manage any discomfort.

On top of that, the entire staff is remarkably friendly, kind, and helpfulMike, US, 14 01 25

I'm a professor at St. Bonaventure University in New York (except during the summer when I am at Oxford University in England). This is my second time with Dr. Miller and his team, and it’s because they did such a phenomenal job the first time. This time, they repaired nine of my teeth, and as always, the people, the equipment and the technology were top-notch. The first thing you should know is that the people here are true professionals. Dr. Miller is the actual incarnation of the mythical "painless dentist." Even the injection of Novocaine is painless—they have a simple technique that makes the typically dreaded injection feel effortless. The work they do is incredibly professional and of the highest quality. The clinic uses cutting-edge technology, some of the most advanced I’ve seen anywhere in the world. On top of that, the entire staff is remarkably friendly, kind, and helpful. I mean everyone. By the way, everyone speaks fluent English. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you need major dental work, this is the place to have it done. Plus, you get the added bonus of being in Cancun, which isn’t a bad place to be while undergoing dental care. If you need major dental work, give these folks a try. You won’t be disappointed.
