Wisdom teeth removal is often associated with discomfort, but at Palisades Dental Health in Washington D.C., we’re committed to making the experience as painless and stress-free as possible. Our clinic combines advanced technology with a compassionate approach, ensuring that you receive the best care during your wisdom teeth extraction.

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically emerge in the late teens or early twenties. For many people, these teeth can cause complications due to a lack of space in the mouth. Common issues include impacted teeth (teeth that don’t fully emerge), crowding, and infection. If left untreated, these problems can lead to pain, misaligned teeth, and even damage to surrounding teeth or bone.

At Palisades Dental Health, we focus on patient comfort and safety throughout the entire process. We utilize state-of-the-art equipment, such as 3D imaging and digital X-rays, to assess the position of your wisdom teeth and determine the best course of action. Our skilled team of dental professionals, ensures that your wisdom teeth removal is smooth, precise, and tailored to your individual needs.

Many patients worry about pain during or after wisdom teeth extraction. At Palisades Dental Health, we offer a range of anesthesia options to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
