Impacted Teeth in Alpharetta, GA

Impacted teeth happen when a tooth becomes stuck in the bone or gums and can't fully erupt, often causing pain and other dental issues. Impacted wisdom teeth and impacted eye teeth are the most common, but any tooth can become impacted. The signs of an impacted tooth typically include discomfort, swelling, and difficulty moving your jaw. Impacted teeth may require removal or exposure to help them emerge properly. At Joe Pausa, DMD, we provide thorough care for impacted tooth removal surgery and exposure to address these issues. If you're experiencing pain from impacted teeth or suspect facial trauma has affected the alignment of your teeth, it's important to seek treatment. Dr. Sergio Pausa specializes in treating impacted teeth, offering personalized care to patients in Alpharetta, GA. Contact our office today to learn about treatment options for impacted teeth and find out how we can help restore your dental health.

There are two main approaches to treating impacted teeth at Joe Pausa, DMD: extraction (removing the impacted tooth) or exposure (creating an opening for the tooth to emerge from the gums). The procedure typically begins with an incision in the gum to access the tooth. In some cases, the tooth may be sectioned into smaller pieces to make removal easier. If removal isn't needed, the tooth may be exposed to allow it to erupt properly. For impacted eye teeth, orthodontic treatment may be used to guide the tooth into place. Sedation options, including local anesthesia, IV sedation, or general anesthesia, are available to help you remain comfortable during the procedure. Before you leave after your surgery, we'll discuss your pain management options and offer tips for post-treatment care to promote healing and prevent complications.

Treating impacted teeth can make a big difference in your oral health and comfort. By taking action, you can avoid complications and improve both your smile and overall dental function. Here are some of the benefits of getting treatment for impacted teeth:

  • Relieves pain and discomfort associated with impacted teeth
  • Improves oral health and reduces the risk of infections
  • Prevents damage to surrounding teeth and bone structure
  • Enhances alignment and aesthetics of the smile
  • Supports proper chewing and overall function of the teeth
  • Reduces the risk of developing cysts or tumors around the impacted tooth
  • Helps maintain long-term oral health and prevent future dental issues

Dr. Sergio did an excellent job extracting 2 teeth. The staff were very efficient and helpful with insurance. Dr.Sergio also explained the procedure. And as I mentioned did an excellent job, fast healing and no pain.
