Frequently asked questions
At what age should wisdom teeth be removed?
Many removals happen between 17 and 25 when roots are shorter and bone is more forgiving — but adults can have wisdom teeth removed at any age when they cause problems.
How much does wisdom teeth removal cost in Woodbridge?
Simple removal may cost a few hundred dollars per tooth; impacted surgical cases with sedation often range higher. We provide estimates after imaging and coordinate insurance verification.
What is dry socket and how do I avoid it?
Dry socket is painful loss of the blood clot at the site. Avoid straws, smoking, and vigorous rinsing for the first few days, and follow our written aftercare instructions.
Is sedation safe for wisdom teeth removal?
For healthy patients, nitrous oxide and surgeon-administered sedation are widely used with monitoring. We review health history and medications before recommending options.
