If you or your child needs wisdom teeth removal in Long Island City, our experienced oral surgery team is here to provide expert care. Most people develop four wisdom teeth—one in each back corner of the mouth behind the second molars. Unfortunately, these third molars often don’t have enough room to emerge properly, which can lead to a range of oral health issues. Early removal can help prevent infections, dental crowding, cysts, and even tumor formation.
Wisdom teeth are typically the last set of molars to erupt, usually appearing between the ages of 17 and 25. When there isn’t enough space in the jaw, they may grow at an angle or sideways. This misalignment can push against nearby teeth, damaging healthy molars and altering bite alignment. Additionally, these teeth frequently become impacted—partially or fully trapped beneath the gumline—creating pockets where bacteria can accumulate, increasing the risk of infection and inflammation.
Dental professionals often recommend regular evaluations to monitor the development of wisdom teeth and take proactive steps to avoid future complications. If you’ve been referred for wisdom tooth removal or are experiencing discomfort, contact our office in Long Island City to schedule a consultation with a trusted oral and maxillofacial specialist.
Tooth loss can result from various factors such as trauma, disease, or neglect. For individuals in Long Island City seeking a reliable tooth replacement solution, dental implants offer a durable and natural-looking option. With over 60 years of combined experience, our team of oral and maxillofacial surgeons is dedicated to restoring smiles with precision and care.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement due to several key benefits:
Bone Preservation: Implants act as artificial tooth roots, stimulating the jawbone and preventing the bone loss that typically follows tooth extraction.
Adjacent Teeth Integrity: Unlike dental bridges, implants do not require alteration of neighboring teeth, preserving their natural structure.
Longevity: With proper care, dental implants boast a success rate exceeding 95% and can last a lifetime.
Natural Aesthetics: Implants support custom-made restorations that mimic the appearance and function of natural teeth, enhancing both smile and confidence.
