Wisdom teeth rarely erupt without issues. Some grow in at awkward angles, while others remain stuck beneath the gums. This can lead to swelling, infection, or crowding. At Dr. Friedberg & Associates, we perform safe wisdom tooth removal to relieve discomfort and prevent future oral health complications. Furthermore, removing wisdom teeth early often prevents crowding and reduces the risk of infection.
When gum disease, trauma, or tooth loss weakens the jawbone, implants may not be possible without additional support. To restore strength, our team performs bone grafting that rebuilds lost structure and improves stability. In addition, this procedure creates a strong foundation for future treatments like dental implants. Patients regain confidence knowing their smile rests on a healthy base. Moreover, bone grafting restores natural facial structure and improves long-term oral health.
A severely damaged or infected tooth may need removal when repair is no longer an option. In cases of advanced decay, trauma, or infection, extraction is often the best way to protect long-term oral health. Therefore, removing a problematic tooth prevents further complications and allows patients to maintain a healthier smile. As a result, patients enjoy improved comfort and avoid risks that could affect nearby teeth.
