Considering wisdom teeth removal? You're not alone. Many patients have questions about pain, recovery time, and whether extraction is necessary. At London Dental Specialists, we understand these concerns. Wisdom teeth often cause problems when they emerge improperly, become impacted, or create crowding. While removal isn't always required, it's often recommended to prevent future complications. Our specialists ensure a comfortable experience with proper anaesthesia and comprehensive aftercare guidance. Most patients return to normal activities within 3-5 days, though complete healing takes 1-2 weeks. Minor side effects like swelling and bruising are normal, while serious complications are rare. We're here to address your specific situation with expert care and clear information throughout your treatment journey.
Wisdom teeth removal at London Dental Specialists is performed under appropriate anaesthesia, ensuring you won't feel pain during the procedure. Our specialists use local anaesthesia to numb the area completely before surgery begins. Some patients may opt for sedation options for additional comfort. If you experience any discomfort during the procedure, our dental surgeons will immediately provide additional anaesthesia. After surgery, mild to moderate discomfort is normal and can be managed with prescribed pain medication and following our post-operative care instructions.
Recovery from wisdom teeth removal typically takes one to two weeks. Most patients can return to work, school, and normal activities within 3-5 days following the procedure. Initial healing occurs within the first week, while complete healing of the extraction sites may take several weeks. At London Dental Specialists, we provide comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and comfort during your recovery period. Regular follow-up appointments help monitor your healing progress.
Wisdom teeth should be removed when they cause problems or are likely to cause issues in the future. Common indications for wisdom teeth removal include:
At London Dental Specialists, our experts thoroughly evaluate each case with detailed imaging to determine if removal is necessary.
Most patients experience minor, temporary side effects after wisdom teeth removal that resolve within a few days. Common side effects include:
Less common complications may include dry socket (when the blood clot dislodges), infection, or temporary numbness. At London Dental Specialists, we take every precaution to minimise these risks and provide clear aftercare instructions to prevent complications.
After wisdom teeth removal, you should consume soft foods and liquids for the first few days. Recommended foods include:
Avoid hard, crunchy, spicy, or sticky foods that might irritate the surgical sites. Also avoid drinking through straws, as the suction can dislodge blood clots and lead to dry socket.

Our team will provide detailed pre-operative instructions tailored to your specific case.
The cost of wisdom teeth removal at London Dental Specialists varies depending on several factors, including the complexity of the extraction, the number of teeth being removed, and the type of anaesthesia used. Simple extractions typically cost less than impacted wisdom teeth that require surgical removal. During your initial consultation, we provide a detailed treatment plan with transparent pricing. We offer various payment options and can discuss potential insurance coverage to make your treatment as affordable as possible.
