Wisdom Teeth

Experts in impacted teeth

The extraction of wisdom teeth/impacted teeth is necessary when the teeth are prevented from properly erupting within the mouth. Poorly positioned wisdom teeth can cause many problems. Dr. Threadgill uses Cone beam 3D imaging to better evaluate the impacted wisdom teeth if necessary. He uses a “minimally invasive” small incision technique that allows healing without the need of sutures. This technique has been shown to reduce swelling and post-operative infection. The complication rate is less when wisdom teeth are removed before the age of 25.
