Age Considerations for Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Many people wonder what age is appropriate to extract wisdom teeth. The best period for each individual differs, however our Krown Dental professionals recommend scheduling the removal in the late teens or early twenties. Early intervention will help you to avoid future risks, reduce the chance of complications, and speed up the healing process.

Understanding the Risk of Dry Sockets

Dry sockets are a potential risk following wisdom teeth removal. This happens when the blood clot that develops at the extraction site becomes dislodged or dissolves early, exposing the underlying bone and nerves. To reduce this risk, our specialists at Krown Dental carefully guide you through post-operative care, emphasizing the significance of adhering to prescribed instructions to ensure a quick and uncomplicated recovery.
