Understanding Your Treatment
What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth removal is the surgical extraction of the third molars, the last set of teeth to develop, typically in the late teens or early twenties. Because most mouths don’t have enough room to accommodate them, wisdom teeth frequently become impacted, erupt at problematic angles, or cause crowding and infection. At Dentist of Redlands, Dr. Munguia uses CBCT imaging and digital X-rays to thoroughly evaluate each wisdom tooth before recommending removal. Wisdom teeth removal in Redlands, CA, is performed with precision and care to minimize discomfort and support a smooth recovery.
The Benefits
The Benefits of Wisdom Tooth Removal
Prevents Infection
Extraction eliminates hard-to-clean pockets where bacteria accumulate and infections develop.
Protects Alignment
Removing crowding wisdom teeth prevents shifting and preserves the position of your existing teeth.
Prevents Cysts
Addressing impacted teeth early stops the bone and root damage that untreated cysts can cause.
Improved Oral Hygiene
With wisdom teeth gone, the back of the mouth becomes significantly easier to clean effectively.
Avoids Bigger Problems
Early removal reduces the risk of more complex, costly complications down the road.

Signs You May Need Wisdom Teeth Removal
If you’re noticing any of the following, wisdom teeth removal in Redlands, CA, may be the right solution for your oral health.
-
Pain Near Jaw — Persistent aching, pressure, or throbbing near the back molars is one of the most common signs of wisdom tooth trouble.
-
Swollen, Tender Gums — The gum tissue around an emerging or impacted wisdom tooth becomes inflamed, red, or sensitive to the touch.

Jaw Stiffness — Difficulty opening your mouth fully or ongoing jaw soreness can indicate a wisdom tooth is pressing against surrounding structures.

Crowding or Shifted Teeth — Wisdom teeth pushing against existing teeth can disrupt your alignment and undo previous orthodontic work.

How much does wisdom teeth removal cost?
Cost varies depending on how many teeth are being removed, their position, and whether sedation is used. Dr. Munguia will provide a detailed estimate after your imaging and evaluation appointment.
Does insurance cover wisdom teeth removal?
Many dental insurance plans cover wisdom teeth removal, particularly when the teeth are impacted or causing a clinical problem. Our team will review your coverage and walk you through any remaining out-of-pocket costs before your procedure.
How long is recovery after wisdom teeth removal?
Most patients feel considerably better within three to four days. Full soft tissue healing typically takes one to two weeks, and Dr. Munguia will provide specific aftercare instructions to keep recovery on track.
Is wisdom teeth removal painful?
The procedure itself is performed under anesthesia, so patients feel pressure but not pain during removal. Post-procedure discomfort is normal and usually manageable with over-the-counter or prescribed pain relief for the first few days.
