Wisdom Tooth Extraction – Dent Alesta Dental Clinic Izmir
Wisdom teeth may remain impacted or partially erupted when jaw space is limited, leading to gum inflammation, decay on neighboring molars, pain, and recurrent infections. At Dent Alesta Dental Clinic in Izmir, we plan extractions to minimize trauma and support a smooth recovery.
Why Do Wisdom Teeth Cause Problems?
Partial eruption traps food and bacteria, causing chronic inflammation. Pressure can damage the second molar. Deep or horizontal impactions may be close to the nerve canal, which requires precise planning.
When Is Extraction Recommended?
- Recurrent pericoronitis and abscess episodes
- Pain and swelling due to partial eruption
- Caries or bone loss risk on the adjacent molar
- Radiographic suspicion of cysts or other pathology
- Space and stability needs for orthodontic treatment
Planning and Imaging in Izmir
CBCT is used to assess root direction, proximity to the nerve canal, sinus relation, and bone density. Medical history, medications, and bleeding risk are reviewed. Sedation options and antibiotic protocols are planned when indicated.
Step by Step Extraction
-
Anesthesia and Antisepsis:
Regional anesthesia provides a painless procedure; antiseptic preparation is performed. -
Flap Design:
A conservative incision allows limited yet sufficient access. -
Bone Removal:
Minimal osteotomy is performed while protecting tissues. -
Root Sectioning:
The tooth is divided and removed in small, controlled pieces. -
Irrigation and Debridement:
The socket is rinsed, and sharp edges are smoothed. -
Sutures and Dressing:
Primary closure supports healing; stitches are removed in 7–10 days.
Pain and Swelling Control
Short term soreness and swelling are normal. Intermittent cold packs for 24–48 hours, head elevation, and prescribed analgesics keep you comfortable. Antibiotics are used only when clinically indicated.
Diet and Healing Timeline
Choose soft, lukewarm foods on day one. Avoid hot drinks and straws. Do not spit forcefully or rinse vigorously. Soft tissues heal in 7–10 days; bone maturation takes a few months.
Possible Risks and How We Reduce Them
Dry socket, infection, bleeding, and rarely temporary altered sensation may occur. We provide written red flag signs, clear contact information, and scheduled follow ups.
Aftercare Essentials
Avoid smoking and alcohol for 24 hours, follow the prescribed mouth rinse protocol, and brush gently. If you clench or grind, a night guard may be considered; interdental hygiene resumes after suture removal.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are wisdom tooth extraction prices in Izmir?
Pricing depends on impaction depth, nerve proximity, surgical complexity, and sedation needs. A precise quote is given after examination and imaging.
Does wisdom tooth extraction hurt?
Local anesthesia keeps the procedure painless. Mild pain and jaw fatigue are common afterward and are managed with medication and cold therapy.
How long will swelling and bruising last?
Swelling peaks within 48–72 hours and subsides over 5–7 days. Keeping your head elevated and using cold packs helps.
Will I get stitches, and when are they removed?
Sutures are common after surgical extractions and are typically removed within 7–10 days at the follow up visit.
How can I prevent dry socket?
Avoid straws, forceful spitting, and smoking in the first day. If pain increases rather than improves, contact our clinic.
When can I return to work or school?
Desk work is often possible the next day; for heavy physical work, 48–72 hours of rest is advised.
Is there a risk of nerve injury?
A small risk exists for lower molars close to the nerve canal. CBCT minimizes this risk and the dentist will discuss your individual case.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction in Izmir: Modern Surgical Approach
At Dent Alesta Cigli Atasehir clinic, wisdom tooth extraction in Izmir is performed with digital 3D imaging (CBCT), minimally invasive surgery, and painless application protocols. Wisdom teeth (third molars) typically erupt between ages 17-25; however, due to limited jaw space, they often remain impacted or partially impacted, requiring extraction. For patients seeking wisdom tooth extraction in Izmir, CBCT imaging enables millimetric mapping of the mandibular nerve in the lower jaw and the maxillary sinus in the upper jaw, minimizing surgical risk and complications.
Extraction indications include recurrent pericoronitis, pressure on the second molar, cyst or tumor formation, pre-orthodontic space gain, and recurrent decay. Modern surgical approach uses small mucoperiosteal flaps and piezosurgery instead of classic wide incisions, significantly reducing post-operative swelling and pain.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction Cost and Duration
Extraction cost depends on the degree of impaction (fully impacted, partially impacted, erupted), position (mesioangular, distoangular, horizontal, vertical), root morphology, nerve proximity, and additional surgical needs. Panoramic X-ray and CBCT when needed enable detailed planning; transparent pricing is shared after clinical examination.
Surgery duration ranges from 15-20 minutes for erupted teeth, 25-40 minutes for partially impacted cases, and 45-60 minutes for fully impacted complex cases. The procedure is performed painlessly under local anesthesia; sedation option is available for anxious patients. Recovery typically takes 7-10 days; swelling and minimal bleeding are expected in the first 24-48 hours. Sutures are removed on day 7, and full bone healing completes within 2-3 months.
