FAQ'S
Frequently Asked Questions about Wisdom Teeth Removal
How much does wisdom teeth removal cost?
The cost depends on the number of teeth being removed and how impacted they are (whether they are trapped in the jawbone). After your consultation and 3D scan, we will provide you with a transparent, all-inclusive quote.
Does my dental insurance cover wisdom teeth removal?
Yes, most dental insurance plans provide good coverage for wisdom teeth removal as it is considered a standard oral surgery procedure. Our team will perform a complimentary benefits check to let you know exactly what your plan covers.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. For any out-of-pocket costs, we partner with CareCredit® and Cherry to offer flexible payment plans that fit your budget.
Does the procedure hurt?
No, you will not feel any pain during the procedure. We use effective local anesthesia to ensure the area is completely numb. Dr. Garcia’s training in Advanced Techniques in Pain and Anxiety Management informs our protocol to ensure you are completely comfortable and at ease.
Will I be awake during the procedure?
Yes, wisdom teeth removal is typically and safely performed while you are awake, using only local anesthesia. You will feel some pressure but no pain. Our team is dedicated to creating a calm and reassuring environment.
Why do I need my wisdom teeth removed?
Wisdom teeth often don't have enough room to grow in properly, causing them to become "impacted." This can lead to pain, infection, cysts, crowding, and damage to adjacent teeth. Removing them is often the best way to prevent these issues.
Do I have to remove them if they don't hurt?
Even if they don't hurt, impacted wisdom teeth can cause problems silently. They are often difficult to clean, leading to decay or gum disease on the neighboring molar. Proactively removing them is often the healthiest long-term strategy.
What is an impacted wisdom tooth?
An impacted tooth is one that is stuck and cannot fully erupt into a normal, functional position. It can be trapped by gum tissue, bone, or another tooth.
How long does the surgery take?
The procedure is surprisingly quick. Removing all four wisdom teeth typically takes between 60 and 90 minutes.
Do all four have to be removed at the same time?
It is generally recommended to have all four removed at once. This allows you to have a single surgical appointment and a single, consolidated recovery period.
What is the recovery like?
Recovery typically takes a few days. You can expect some swelling, which can be managed with cold compresses. We recommend resting for the first 24-48 hours and enjoying a soft-food diet. Most people are back to their normal activities within a few days.
What is a "dry socket" and how do I avoid it?
A dry socket is a rare complication where the blood clot that forms in the extraction site is dislodged. The best ways to prevent it are to avoid smoking, not using a straw, and refraining from vigorous spitting or rinsing for the first few days after surgery.
What can I eat after surgery?
We recommend a soft-food diet for the first few days. Good options include smoothies, yogurt, pudding, mashed potatoes, and soup. Avoid anything hot, spicy, crunchy, or that has small seeds.
Are there any risks with wisdom teeth removal?
While wisdom teeth removal is a very common and safe procedure, all surgery has potential risks, including infection, dry socket, or temporary changes to nerve sensation in the lip or tongue. These risks are minimal, especially when the surgery is performed by a well-trained dentist like Dr. Garcia.
When can I go back to work or school?
Most patients plan to take 2 to 3 days off from work or school to rest and recover comfortably.
