Wisdom teeth removal in Cannon Hill
Wisdom teeth often cause problems during the late teenage years or early twenties, but they can also become an issue later in life. While some wisdom teeth erupt normally and never cause concern, others can become impacted or partially erupt, leading to pain, infection and damage to surrounding teeth.
At Cannon Hill Smiles, we provide clear advice and experienced care for patients needing wisdom teeth removal in Brisbane. Our goal is to assess whether removal is necessary and guide you through your options with confidence and clarity.
How do I know if I have wisdom teeth?
Not everyone develops wisdom teeth, and not all wisdom teeth cause symptoms. The most reliable way to know if you have wisdom teeth is through a dental examination and diagnostic X-rays. These allow your dentist to see whether wisdom teeth are present, how they are positioned and whether they are likely to cause problems, even if you are not currently experiencing pain.

Wisdom teeth removal options in Cannon Hill
Wisdom teeth can be removed in different ways depending on their position, level of impaction and proximity to nerves. Some wisdom teeth can be safely removed in the dental chair using local anaesthetic, while other complicated cases may require referral for specialist.
At Cannon Hill Smiles, many wisdom teeth can be safely removed in the dental chair using local anaesthetic alone. This approach is suitable for many cases and can help avoid the additional costs associated with private hospital fees, general anaesthetic and specialist care.
For patients who are anxious or have more complex cases, we can also discuss sedation or referral options if needed. Our Brisbane dentist will recommend the most appropriate approach based on your comfort and clinical needs.
