Wisdom teeth erupt later in life, and their arrival is not something we tend to celebrate. As they move into position, they can create several issues for neighboring teeth. Those problems can include issues with pressure on neighboring teeth, damage to their enamel, and even problems with spacing. As
your wisdom teeth—also known as third molars—meet resistance due to a lack of space, they can become impacted, leading to a more difficult removal. Fortunately, the problem can be addressed before complications occur.
At our Richmond, VA dentist's office, we help patients who need their third molars extracted. When necessary, we can provide oral surgery to ensure that teeth are properly accessed and removed before they create difficulties for you.
Does the idea of receiving dental treatment leave you feeling uneasy? When anxiety causes you to delay or even completely avoid visiting your dentist, minor oral health problems can turn into serious concerns. That is why we prioritize your comfort at every appointment, from general checkups to full-mouth reconstruction. At your Midlothian, VA dental practice, we offer sedation dentistry services to calm your nerves when you need them most. We offer different levels of sedation depending on your preferences and procedure to help you remain calm throughout. By understanding how each technique operates, you can determine which method is appropriate for you!
