It is advisable to attend follow-up consultations to ensure that recovery is progressing properly and that there are no lingering complications.
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the teeth located at the end of each quadrant of the denture.
These wisdom teeth can usually erupt in adulthood, sometimes causing discomfort and complications.
At Obarrio Dental Clinic, we specialize in solving problems that these wisdom teeth can cause, through efficient and safe extraction services.
Whether it’s lack of space, incorrect position, infections, or cavities, we’re here to offer you a reliable solution. Recover your well-being and enjoy a smile without discomfort. Let us take care of you!
There are two main types of wisdom tooth extractions:
It is performed when the wisdom tooth is visible and accessible. Generally, it only requires local anesthesia.
It is necessary when the wisdom tooth has not fully erupted or is impacted. This process may involve making an incision in the gum and sometimes removing a small amount of bone.
Available Treatments
Some indicators that wisdom teeth may need to be removed include:
A dentist should assess the need to remove wisdom teeth through a series of examinations, including x-rays and a detailed clinical evaluation. This evaluation allows you to determine the position of the molars and plan the appropriate procedure.
Wisdom teeth are known to be the last to appear in the mouth. Many times, these wisdom teeth do not have enough room to erupt properly, resulting in impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth. This can cause severe pain and damage to adjacent teeth, which makes it important to evaluate and remove them in a timely manner.
Associated problems include jaw pain, acute infections, and difficulty brushing the affected area properly, which compromises oral health. In addition, impacted wisdom teeth can cause recurring pain and even damage other teeth if not acted upon in time.
We begin with an initial consultation to evaluate the condition of the wisdom molars. A thorough oral exam and possibly x-rays will allow our team of specialists to determine the best strategy to safely remove your wisdom tooth.
Our surgical procedure is designed to be as comfortable as possible for patients. This includes exposure of the tooth and bone and careful removal of the wisdom tooth. An expert maxillofacial surgeon or oral surgeon will perform the procedure ensuring minimal invasiveness and maximum efficiency.
After extraction, we provide detailed aftercare instructions. This includes eating soft foods, maintaining proper oral hygiene, and avoiding dry sockets. Patients will be followed to ensure optimal recovery.

Complexity of the procedure
The complexity of the procedure is one of the most influential factors in cost. Simple extractions are generally less expensive compared to surgical extractions, which may require more time and resources.
Clinic Location
Where the clinic is located also affects the price. Clinics in urban areas or areas with higher demand for dental services tend to have higher rates.
Dentist Experience
The dentist’s experience and specialization also impact the cost. Professionals with more years of experience or specializations in oral surgery often charge higher rates due to their expertise and skills.

The use of advanced equipment and technology during the procedure can increase costs, but it often ensures a safer and more efficient process, with a faster recovery.

Extraction is necessary when wisdom teeth are impacted, painful, or have recurrent infections. It is also recommended if they cause damage to adjacent teeth.
Recovery time varies depending on the complexity of the surgical procedure. In general, the recovery process takes between one and two weeks, depending on individual factors.
The most common complications include dry socket and infections. However, by following the recommendations of the maxillofacial specialist, these can be prevented efficiently.
