Gentle, Professional Care for Your Wisdom Teeth Removal Needs
At Bhandari Dental, we understand that wisdom teeth removal can feel like a daunting experience for many patients. Our compassionate team is dedicated to making the process as comfortable, pain-free, and efficient as possible. Whether you’re experiencing pain, overcrowding, or other dental issues related to your wisdom teeth, our professional team is here to provide the care you need in a welcoming environment.
Why is Wisdom Tooth Removal Important?
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last teeth to emerge, usually in your late teens or early twenties. While some people have no issues with their wisdom teeth, many experience complications that require removal. These complications include:
-
Overcrowding: Wisdom teeth often cause overcrowding, which can shift your other teeth and affect your smile alignment.
-
Impaction: When wisdom teeth fail to fully emerge, they can become impacted, leading to pain, swelling, and infections.
-
Cavities or Decay: Due to their location at the back of the mouth, wisdom teeth are hard to clean properly, increasing the risk of decay.
-
Gum Disease: Partially erupted wisdom teeth can create pockets in the gums, which trap bacteria and lead to gum infections.
-
Damage to Adjacent Teeth: If there isn’t enough space, wisdom teeth can push against neighboring teeth, causing damage to their structure and roots.
Removing wisdom teeth can prevent these issues and preserve your long-term oral health. At Bhandari Dental, we ensure that this procedure is both effective and tailored to your individual needs.
Factors to Consider When Getting Wisdom Teeth Removed
Before scheduling your wisdom teeth removal, it’s important to consider several factors to ensure the best possible outcome:
-
Timing: Wisdom teeth are often easier to remove in younger patients because their roots aren’t fully developed, and the bone surrounding them is softer.
-
Symptoms: Pain, swelling, or infections are key indicators that wisdom teeth may need removal.
-
Digital Images: At Bhandari Dental, we use advanced imaging technology to determine the position of your wisdom teeth and assess potential complications.
-
Sedation Options: We offer various sedation methods, including nitrous oxide and oral sedation, to ensure a pain-free and stress-free procedure.
Our team will guide you through every step, helping you make informed decisions about your care.
The Wisdom Teeth Removal Procedure
At Bhandari Dental, your comfort and safety are our top priorities. Here’s what you can expect during the procedure:
-
Consultation and Assessment: During your initial visit, we’ll evaluate your wisdom teeth using digital images and a comprehensive examination. This allows us to plan the procedure and address any questions or concerns you may have.
-
Preparation and Sedation: On the day of the procedure, we’ll use local anesthesia or your preferred sedation option to ensure a pain-free experience.
-
Extraction: Depending on whether your wisdom teeth are fully or partially erupted, we’ll carefully remove them with minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.
-
Closure and Healing: After the extraction, stitches may be used to promote healing. Our gentle approach ensures reduced discomfort and faster recovery times.
Recovery and Aftercare
Recovering from wisdom teeth removal requires a bit of care and patience, but following these steps can make the process smooth and comfortable:
-
Manage Swelling: Use an ice pack on your cheeks to reduce swelling during the first 24-48 hours.
-
Pain Relief: Over-the-counter or prescribed pain medications can help manage discomfort.
-
Diet: Stick to soft foods like soups, yogurt, and mashed potatoes for the first few days. Avoid hot or spicy foods, as well as straws, which can dislodge the blood clot at the extraction site.
-
Oral Hygiene: Gently rinse your mouth with warm salt water starting 24 hours after the procedure to keep the area clean. Avoid brushing directly over the extraction site.
-
Rest: Take it easy for the first few days to allow your body to heal properly.
Our team at Bhandari Dental is always available to answer questions or address concerns during your recovery. Your health and comfort are our priorities.

Whitening
Over the counter products, take home whitening kits or in-office whitening are the 3 types of whitening. In-office whitening will provide the longest lasting result and greater depth (6 - 9 shades whiter). We use Opalesence Extra Boost exclusively in our office.
Bonding
Bonding is used when a tooth has been chipped, damaged, misaligned or stained/ discoloured. A composite material is applied and molded to fit the form of the tooth. A
"bonding light" then dries and sets the material. Once this has been completed, we polish and smooth the material.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers provide the same function as bonding however they typically last longer. They are used for chipped, damaged, misaligned or discoloured teeth. The veneers are made of a very thin shell of porcelain that is bonded to the front of the teeth. Once applied it becomes very hard and durable. They resist stains and look very natural. This is a short procedure usually requiring only two appointments.
Bleaching
Bleaching is a very effective treatment for stained or discoloured teeth. A peroxide solution is applied, stimulated by heat or heat combined with light. Once the solution has been rinsed the teeth have been lightened. This procedure generally needs to be touched up each year.
Gum Tissue Contouring
Gum tissue contouring, also known as gum reshaping or gum sculpting, is a cosmetic dental procedure that involves shaping and restructuring the gum line to enhance the aesthetics of the smile. This procedure is commonly performed to address issues such as a gummy smile (excessive gum display) or an uneven gum line.
White Fillings
Tooth-colored white fillings, also known as composite resin fillings, offer several advantages compared to traditional amalgam (silver/grey/mercury) fillings, as they are made to match the natural appearance and color of your teeth, providing a more aesthetically pleasing result, especially for visible teeth.
