Wisdom Tooth Extraction in Dubai

Impacted or crowded wisdom teeth can lead to a variety of complications. Wisdom tooth removal can either be proactive — with the goal of preventing complications — or to treat pain and infection.

You may need a wisdom tooth extraction if:

  • There is inadequate space for the tooth to erupt
  • The wisdom tooth is pressing into neighboring teeth
  • You have an infection or decay associated with that tooth
  • You’re in pain or experiencing facial swelling
  • The wisdom teeth are causing crowding or tooth misalignment

Since wisdom teeth are extremely difficult to clean (because of limited space and partial eruption) they are more likely to develop cavities and periodontal infections. In turn, those diseases can spread to the adjacent healthy teeth. Rather than try to treat the infection and prevent it from recurring, wisdom tooth removal is the standard of care.

Planning Your Wisdom Tooth Extraction

The first step in planning a wisdom tooth extraction is to reserve an exam with one of our Dubai dentists or oral surgeons. We’ll take a special 3D CBCT scan or full-mouth X-ray to evaluate your wisdom tooth positioning, anatomy, and surrounding structures. If tooth removal is in your best interest, our oral surgeon will explain the process and plan the extraction and sedation options if required.

Dubai Oral Surgery and Wisdom Tooth Extraction

A major dental surgery (pulling teeth, like third molars) should be performed by a licensed oral surgeon for maximum safety and comfort. Dr. Joy Dental Clinic has a highly trained team of dentists and dental specialists in Dubai. Working together as a team, we’re able to assure an efficient care process that puts you and your family first. 

If you or your teen need to have your wisdom teeth extracted, contact one of our Dubai clinics to reserve an exam.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What can I eat after wisdom tooth extraction surgery?

    Soft foods such as pudding, yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, and gelatin are good to have on hand. After a few days, you can shift to more solid types of foods.

  • What are the dos and don’ts after wisdom tooth extraction?

    We will provide you with written home care instructions to follow. Be sure to pay attention to the dos and don’ts, as they will ultimately affect your comfort and recovery. Do not smoke, use tobacco, drink caffeine, or use a straw for at least a week. Avoid hard, hot, or crunchy foods while your extraction sites heal.

  • How long does a wisdom tooth extraction take?

    The length of your oral surgery depends on the positioning of your wisdom teeth if they’re impacted, and the experience of your oral surgeon. The majority of our Dubai wisdom tooth extractions can typically be completed in about an hour.

  • What is the wisdom tooth extraction recovery like?

    The majority of our patients feel back to normal within a couple of days. Others may need a week or more of rest until they feel like themselves again.

  • How long does pain after wisdom tooth extraction last?

    Everyone is different. Some people require no pain relievers other than over-the-counter medication (like ibuprofen.) Others may need a day or two on a prescription pain reliever or anti-inflammatory as they recover.

  • How do I prepare for wisdom teeth surgery?

    Book an appointment with our experienced oral surgeon to assess your wisdom teeth and provide you with treatment plan and offer advice concerning sedation. Plan an early appointment with no breakfast.

  • When do wisdom teeth grow in?

    Most wisdom teeth erupt between the mid-teens to the late 20s. It’s not uncommon for them to continue developing until you’re about 30 years old.
