Wisdom teeth can sometimes be a bit of a mystery. While some people never experience any issues, others face discomfort, crowding, or even infections. At Espire Dental Westminster, we offer expert wisdom teeth removal to ensure your smile stays healthy, pain-free, and aligned. Whether your wisdom teeth are emerging with complications or need to be extracted as a preventive measure, we’re here to provide comfortable, stress-free care.
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to emerge, typically appearing in your late teens or early twenties. While they don’t always cause problems, they often grow in at odd angles or fail to fully emerge, leading to crowding, pain, or even infections. In some cases, wisdom teeth can also impact nearby teeth or cause cysts, which can damage bone and surrounding structures.
At Espire Dental Westminster, we carefully evaluate each patient’s wisdom teeth to determine whether extraction is necessary. With our expertise, we can prevent potential issues and ensure your long-term oral health.
When it comes to removing wisdom teeth, you want a team that’s experienced and attentive to your comfort. At Espire Dental, we make sure your procedure is as smooth and pain-free as possible. Whether you live near the Westminster Promenade or down the road from Legacy Ridge Golf Course, we’re dedicated to making your experience a positive one.
Here's what you can expect during the procedure:
Dr. Richard Lim, a Colorado native and graduate of the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine, brings years of experience and a compassionate touch to each procedure. With a reputation for helping patients overcome dental anxiety, you’ll be in good hands at Espire Dental in Westminster.
Not at all! With modern anesthesia and sedation options, you’ll remain comfortable throughout the procedure. Many patients are pleasantly surprised by how quick and painless it is.
Most patients need about three to five days to recover. You may experience some swelling and discomfort, but following our aftercare instructions will ensure you heal as quickly as possible.
While wisdom teeth removal is a minor procedure, we recommend taking a day or two off to rest and recover. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days.
Stick to soft foods like yogurt, applesauce, smoothies, and mashed potatoes for the first few days. Avoid hard, crunchy, or spicy foods that could irritate the area.
Our dentists can evaluate your wisdom teeth using X-rays to see if they’re causing problems or are likely to in the future. If they’re impacted or causing crowding, extraction may be the best option.
