Understanding Your Third Molars
That tight fit is the root of most wisdom tooth trouble. A tooth may stay partly buried, tilt toward the neighboring molar, or push against it. Any of these can cause soreness, gum irritation, and decay in the teeth next door. If your jaw has been aching or your gums feel tender near the back of your mouth, our Austin team can take a look and tell you whether removal makes sense for you.

Wisdom Tooth Extractions FAQs for Wells Branch Patients
Does every wisdom tooth have to come out?
No. Healthy wisdom teeth that have room to grow in and are easy to clean can stay put. We recommend removal when a tooth is causing pain, repeated infections, or damage to the teeth around it.
Is wisdom tooth pain a dental emergency?
It can be. Ongoing pain, swelling, or a bad taste near the back of your mouth often means a wisdom tooth isn’t coming in properly or has become infected. Call us at (512) 961-6200 so we can see you promptly. If swelling spreads and makes it hard to breathe or swallow, go to the nearest emergency room.
Will the extraction hurt?
You’ll be numbed first, so most people feel only pressure and movement during the procedure. Sedation is available if you’d like extra help relaxing. Some soreness and swelling afterward are normal and can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers or medication we prescribe. Call us if pain gets worse instead of better.
How much does wisdom tooth removal cost?
The cost depends on how many teeth are coming out and how difficult each one is, such as whether it’s impacted. After your exam, we’ll give you an estimate before treatment begins. Payment plans and insurance options may be available to help keep the cost manageable.
How long is recovery?
Most patients feel mostly recovered within a few days, with full healing taking about two weeks. Rest, soft foods, and following our aftercare instructions help the process along. We’ll walk you through what to expect before you leave.
