Wisdom Tooth Removal
Examination and X-ray before removal to evaluate the tooth position and reduce discomfort or complications.
From $80
Is your wisdom tooth causing pain or swelling?
Wisdom teeth often appear in late teens or adulthood. Sometimes they do not have enough space to grow properly, causing them to become impacted, tilted, or partially erupted.
When this happens, food and bacteria can get trapped around the gum, leading to pain, swelling, bad breath, infection, or difficulty opening your mouth. A dentist can examine the area and use an X-ray to check whether removal is needed.
At MintTeeth Dental, we do not rush into treatment. We first check your tooth position, gum condition, and nearby structures before explaining the safest option for your case.

Your wisdom tooth hurts or causes pressure at the back of your mouth

Your dentist has recommended an X-ray or removal
Wisdom teeth do not always need to be removed. The dentist will first check whether the tooth is causing problems or may affect nearby teeth before recommending treatment.
What problems can wisdom teeth cause?
Impacted wisdom tooth | The tooth does not have enough space to fully come through the gum. |
Gum infection around the tooth | Partially erupted wisdom teeth can trap bacteria and food under the gum flap, which may lead to inflammation or infection. |
Pain and swelling | Pressure from a wisdom tooth may cause soreness, jaw stiffness, or swelling around the gum. |
Tooth decay | Wisdom teeth are hard to clean, so cavities may form on the wisdom tooth or the tooth next to it. |
Damage to nearby teeth | A tilted wisdom tooth may press against the second molar or make it harder to clean properly. |
Cyst formation | In some impacted cases, a cyst may form near the wisdom tooth and affect surrounding bone or nearby tooth roots. |

How do I know if my wisdom tooth needs removal?
You may need a check-up if your wisdom tooth causes pain, swelling, bad breath, food trapping, or difficulty opening your mouth. The dentist will examine the area and may use an X-ray to decide whether removal is needed.
Does every wisdom tooth need to be removed?
No. Wisdom teeth do not always need removal if they are healthy, fully erupted, easy to clean, and not causing problems. Removal is usually considered when the tooth is impacted, infected, decayed, painful, or affecting nearby teeth.
Is wisdom tooth removal painful?
The area is usually numbed before treatment, so you should not feel sharp pain during removal. Some pressure may be felt. After treatment, mild discomfort and swelling are common and can be managed with aftercare instructions.
How long does recovery take?
Many patients feel better within a few days, while full healing may take one to two weeks depending on the difficulty of the extraction and how well aftercare instructions are followed.
How much does wisdom tooth removal cost?
Wisdom tooth removal usually ranges from $80 – $350 per tooth. The final price depends on the X-ray result, tooth position, infection condition, and whether it is a simple or impacted case.
