When wisdom teeth do not have enough space in the jaw or cause discomfort, removal is often advisable. At our clinic for oral surgery at the Pinnau, we perform this procedure regularly and with great care. Our aim is to make the treatment as comfortable as possible, from preparation through to full recovery.
Not every wisdom tooth needs to be removed. A procedure is recommended if:
Timely X-ray diagnostics help detect possible complications early and prevent them effectively. This ensures lasting oral and jaw health.
Before the operation, we explain every step in detail and address any questions. After an examination, local anaesthesia is administered or – if preferred – treatment under sedation or general anaesthesia. The procedure usually takes between 20 and 60 minutes, depending on the position of the teeth. Afterwards, the wound is closed and cooled. You will receive clear instructions for care at home.
Swelling and pressure usually subside within a few days. After about a week, we check the healing progress and remove the stitches.
Different anaesthesia options are available for wisdom tooth removal:
We advise you individually on which option suits you best and ensure that your treatment is safe and as stress-free as possible.
Rest is particularly important after wisdom tooth removal. Please observe the following recommendations:
If swelling or pain persists, please arrange a follow-up appointment. We support you until full recovery.
