Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Burnaby
At Burnaby Gentle Dental, we make wisdom teeth removal simple, safe, and comfortable.
Our experienced team uses modern technology and a gentle approach to prevent pain, infection, or crowding caused by impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth.
What It Is & How It Works
Wisdom teeth — also known as third molars — usually appear in your late teens or early twenties.
Sometimes, there isn’t enough room for them to grow properly, causing discomfort, infection, or damage to nearby teeth.
A wisdom teeth extraction removes these problematic teeth safely to protect your overall oral health and prevent long-term issues.
