Firstly, wisdom teeth often need to be removed due to overcrowding, pain, or infection. Many people delay treatment because they fear high dental costs. However, affordable wisdom tooth extraction is possible without compromising safety or results. Advanced Smiles Dentistry in Tijuana offers expert care at a fraction of the cost in the U.S. or Canada. Patients often save up to 70% by choosing treatment in Mexico.

What are wisdom teeth?

To begin, wisdom teeth are the third set of molars that usually emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people have enough space for these teeth, many do not. As a result, wisdom teeth often grow in at an angle or get stuck beneath the gums, causing pain, swelling, or infection.

Removing impacted or problematic wisdom teeth can prevent further dental issues. These include crowding, tooth decay, gum disease, and cyst formation. In many cases, dentists recommend extraction before problems arise. This helps ensure better oral health and easier healing, especially in younger patients.

Wisdom tooth extraction

The procedure typically takes about 45 minutes per tooth. Your dentist will use local anesthesia or IV conscious sedation based on your comfort level. Afterward, you may feel some swelling or discomfort, but this usually subsides in a few days. Our top oral surgeons will provide aftercare instructions and follow-up appointments if needed. Best of all, we are one of the fews that offer same-day consultations and extractions, saving you time and money.

Tips for a smooth oral surgery recovery

Follow all post-op care instructions and attend your follow-up appointment. Healing usually takes about a week, but complete recovery may take longer depending on the complexity of the extraction.
