Wisdom teeth can be removed by a dentist or in more complicated cases by a dental surgeon, we have both type of providers available at Emergency Dentist London

The length and the type of the operation have to be analysed and need a tailor made decision. Wisdom teeth extraction is usually made under local anaesthetic. To reach the wisdom tooth, the dentist will cut your gum and maybe a part of your jawbone. In a simple case the operation wouldn't last longer than a couple of minutes, but in certain cases it might take up to 40 minutes to extract the teeth. Once the wisdom teeth are removed the doctor will close the wound with stitches.

In the first time you will have to take extra care because of the side effects of anaesthetic and sedation. Your dentist will advise you what to do in case of pain. Stitches will be removed within about a week.
