Wisdom Teeth Pain and Tooth extractions
-
Elation Dental (Croydon South) are experts in the extraction of all teeth - including wisdom teeth.
Make an appointment with Dr Kerry Chen for a consultation!
Teeth may need extraction for many reasons. For example, loose, infected, painful teeth and wisdom teeth are common reasons to book your dental appointment at Elation Dental, Croydon South. In addition, rinsing with warm salt water, pain relief from ibuprofen and or panadol may also help. Finally, make sure you call Elation Dental on 9725 2029 or book online to see us ASAP!
At Elation Dental, we have Dr Kerry Chen attending. To clarify, Dr Chen is a general dentist with a particular interest in minor oral surgery. For instance, this includes extraction of teeth, including wisdom teeth. However, some extremely complicated cases may still require referral to a specialist oral surgeon.
In conclusion, please call Elation Dental on 9725 2029 and ask for an appointment with Dr Kerry Chen.
Firstly, we'll usually order a dental xray (OPG or orthopantomogram). Secondly, Dr Kerry Chen is able to provide you with options for gentle extraction of teeth (including wisdom teeth) under local anaesthetic. However, some extractions require hospital admission and specialist oral surgeons - if necessary, we will organise referrals for you.

Why do we get wisdom teeth?
Firstly, wisdom teeth are the third molars that usually emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. Importantly, to prevent potential future problems we sometimes recommend wisdom tooth extraction. For example, you may feel swollen or sore at the very back of your teeth, or have limited jaw opening. Finally, throbbing pain can be a sign of more severe gum infection from your wisdom teeth.
Without delay, at Elation Dental we can treat immediate pains, usually with prescribed antibiotics and pain relief. In addition, we are able to handle many extractions of wisdom teeth. However, some extreme cases (including those requiring hospital based surgery) will need to be referred to a local oral surgeon.
