Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the last adult teeth to erupt, often between ages 17-25. In many Hamilton patients, there isn’t enough room for them to come in properly, causing impaction (stuck in the gums or jawbone) or partial eruption that’s hard to keep clean. This can lead to pain, swelling, bad breath, gum infection (pericoronitis), cavities, and damage to the tooth beside it. In some cases, a cyst can form around an impacted tooth and affect surrounding bone.
We assess your symptoms and take digital X-rays (often panoramic imaging) to see the tooth position, root shape, and proximity to nerves or sinuses. If removal is recommended, we explain the plan, anesthesia choices, timeline, and cost before moving forward.

Not always. If they erupt fully, sit in a cleanable position, and don’t harm nearby teeth or gums, they may be monitored. Many still require removal due to impaction or hygiene issues.

During the procedure, local anesthesia keeps you comfortable. Afterward, soreness is normal and is usually manageable with recommended medication and ice.
