Is wisdom tooth extraction always necessary?

Not always. If your wisdom teeth are healthy, fully erupted and not causing problems, you may not need removal. But if they’re crowding your smile, causing pain or leading to infection, extraction may be the best choice. Your Aspen Dental care team will review X-rays and help you decide. You can also read more about why wisdom teeth are removed and what to expect.

Is wisdom tooth removal painful?

During the procedure, local anesthesia numbs the area so you can be as comfortable as possible. Some soreness afterward is normal, but your Aspen Dental care team will create a pain management plan to help you heal comfortably.

Can all wisdom teeth be removed at once?

Yes. Many patients choose to have all four removed together, which can make recovery more efficient. Your care team will discuss whether this is right for you.

How can I reduce swelling and discomfort after wisdom tooth extraction?

Apply ice packs during the first 24 hours, rest with your head elevated and follow any medication instructions given by your care team at Aspen Dental. These steps help minimize swelling and speed healing.

What should I avoid eating after wisdom tooth extraction?

Avoid crunchy, hard or very hot foods. Start with soft foods like yogurt, smoothies, mashed potatoes or soups. As you heal, you can gradually return to your normal diet.

Working with Dayana Melendez was an excellent experience from start to finish. From our first interaction, she demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and clear communication, which immediately built trust. Dayana was always available to answer questions and made sure every need was addressed with thoughtful and effective solutions. Her approach is friendly, respectful, and genuinely client-focused. It’s clear that she takes pride in delivering high-quality service. The level of organization, follow-up, and care she provides truly exceeded my expectations, and the final outcome reflected her strong commitment to excellence. I highly recommend Dayana Melendez to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and dedicated service. It was a pleasure working with her, and I would absolutely work with her again.

Dental Hygenist Kriss exceeded my expectations & brought my confidence back. Ive had terrible experiences in the past with getting my teeth cleaned which lead me to avoid going to the dentist office all together negatively impacting my teeth overtime. I came in with terrible plaque & my gums inflamed & walked out with pearly white clean teeth & after my second treatment for gingivitis my gums were no longer bleeding or inflamed. Kriss was so professional & attentive to my needs. I need more people to experience her care, she is amazing & will have your teeth looking & feeling right. I loved the dynamic of the team at this Aspen dental office. Ive been to several of their offices & this office has been the best one so far. They work together & help eachother deliver excellent patient care. Adrian is very knowledgeable and took my xrays without discomfort & he has an awesome personality, dentist melendez is awesome too, she filled in my cavities pain free & Im so excited to start my motto aligners with her! Natalia working front desk was very patient with all my questions & helping me understand what my insurance would help cover & gave me options to be able to afford my procedures I would recommend this office to anyone! Its worth the drive!

What are wisdom tooth extractions?

Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars to erupt, usually in the late teens or early twenties. Not all wisdom teeth require removal—but when they cause pain, crowding or infection, tooth extraction is often the most effective solution. If the tooth is fully visible, it can usually be removed with forceps under local anesthesia. For teeth that are impacted or partially emerged, a minor surgical procedure may be needed. Your Aspen Dental care team will walk you through which option is best for you and explain how we minimize discomfort.

Reasons to get a wisdom tooth extraction

You may need removal if you experience:

Types of wisdom tooth extractions

Non surgical wisdom tooth extractions

When a wisdom tooth has fully erupted, removal is straightforward. Under local anesthesia, your Aspen Dental dentist gently loosens and extracts the tooth with forceps.

Surgical wisdom tooth extractions

When a wisdom tooth is impacted or angled incorrectly, a surgical approach may be needed. Your Aspen Dental dentist makes a small opening in the gum to remove the tooth, sometimes placing sutures to aid healing.
