Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Dentist Livermore

Third molars, or wisdom teeth, often require extraction due to complications like impaction, crowding, or severe decay. At Define Dentistry, Dr. Sanna Charlie evaluates these issues and may recommend extraction. Sedation dentistry is available to ensure comfort during the procedure. Afterward, arrange for someone to drive you home due to potential drowsiness. Follow post-extraction care instructions such as resting with your head elevated, changing gauze for bleeding, using pain medication, and applying ice packs as directed. Stick to a soft-food diet and avoid smoking and straws to promote healing. Contact our office if bleeding persists beyond 24 hours or to schedule an extraction consultation.
