Impacted Tooth Surgery
Impacted tooth surgery removes teeth, most often wisdom teeth, that stay inside the jawbone instead of erupting normally. These teeth can press on surrounding tissues and cause pain, infection or damage to neighboring teeth.
Impacted Tooth Surgery
This covers the surgical removal of teeth that remain within the jawbone without erupting into their normal position — especially wisdom teeth.
Impacted teeth can press on surrounding tissues and cause pain, infection or damage to neighboring teeth. Their surgical removal protects both oral health and the structure of the jaw.

Frequently asked questions
What is an impacted tooth?
An impacted tooth is a tooth that remains within the jawbone and has not erupted into its normal position. Wisdom teeth are a typical example.
Why might an impacted tooth need to be removed?
It can press on surrounding tissues and cause pain or infection, or damage neighboring teeth. Surgical removal protects both oral health and the structure of the jaw.
Does every impacted tooth have to come out?
Not automatically. Whether a particular tooth should be removed is decided after a clinical examination and imaging that show where the tooth sits and how it relates to the neighboring teeth and structures.
How is impacted tooth surgery planned?
Imaging such as a panoramic X-ray or CBCT shows the position of the tooth in the jawbone, and the surgical approach is chosen accordingly. Planning follows the clinical examination, not a description.
Are sedation or general anesthesia available?
For complex surgery the clinic offers sedation and general anesthesia options in a sterile environment. Which option suits your case is discussed at the consultation.
