If your wisdom teeth are causing discomfort or crowding your smile, Espire Dental Cheyenne is here to help. Wisdom teeth, the third molars at the very back of your mouth, often emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. For many, these teeth don’t have enough room to grow properly, which can lead to pain, swelling, and misalignment. With Dr. Dale Lazar—a seasoned dentist with over 25 years of experience—you can trust that your wisdom teeth removal will be safe, quick, and as comfortable as possible. Located near Francis E. Warren Air Force Base, Cheyenne Botanic Gardens, and Frontier Mall, we’re easy to find and ready to help you enjoy a pain-free smile.
Wondering if it’s time to have your wisdom teeth removed? Here are some common signs that wisdom teeth may be causing problems:
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to schedule a consultation with our dental team. Early removal can prevent pain and more serious complications down the road.
Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars that erupt, but because they often don’t have enough space to emerge properly, they can become impacted or grow at odd angles. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause a variety of problems, including:
Removing wisdom teeth can prevent these complications, protecting your oral health and comfort. At Espire Dental Cheyenne, we specialize in gentle wisdom teeth extractions, ensuring a smooth recovery and relief from the discomfort of impacted or overcrowded teeth.
If your wisdom teeth are causing pain and swelling or are growing at an angle, they may need to be removed. Our team can take X-rays to determine whether extraction is necessary.
You can choose from different sedation options so that you won’t feel any pain during the procedure. You’ll also be able to discuss the best option with Dr. Lazar during your consultation.
Most patients recover in just a few days. You may experience some swelling or discomfort for the first 48 hours, but this can be managed with prescribed pain medication and ice packs. Following your post-op instructions will ensure a smooth recovery.
You’ll want to rest the day of your procedure, but many patients are able to return to work or school after a couple of days. Avoid strenuous activities until your recovery is complete.
In some cases, stitches are necessary to promote healing. Dr. Lazar will let you know if they are needed, and they typically dissolve on their own within a week.
Stick to soft foods like smoothies, yogurt, and mashed potatoes for the first few days after the procedure. Avoid hard, crunchy, or spicy foods to allow your mouth to heal properly.

I have had a lot of dental work in the last few years and have been especially pleased with the new Espire experience. The high tech imaging equipment and the professionals using it makes for precise fittings for fillings and caps. The staff could not be friendlier or more accommodating.
