Proceedure:
Dr.Nukk will numb the area to lessen any discomfort. After the extraction, he will advise you of what post extraction regiment to follow, in most cases a small amount of bleeding is normal.

After the extraction, it is usually best not to smoke or rinse your mouth vigorously, or drink through a straw for 24 hours. These activities could dislodge the clot and delay healing.

For the first few days, if you must rinse, rinse your mouth gently afterward, for pain or swelling, apply a cold cloth or an ice bag. Dr. Nukk will give you a prescription for pain medication. You can brush and floss the other teeth as usual. But don't clean the teeth next to the tooth socket.

Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth are a valuable asset to the mouth when they are healthy and properly positioned. Often, however, problems develop that require their removal. When the jaw isn't large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth, they can become impacted (unable to come in or misaligned). Wisdom teeth may grow sideways, emerge only part way from the gum or remain trapped beneath the gum and bone.

1. Extraction of wisdom teeth is generally recommended when:
   Wisdom teeth only partially erupt. This leaves an opening for bacteria to enter around the tooth and cause an infection. Pain, swelling, jaw stiffness and general illness can result.
2. There is a chance that poorly aligned wisdom teeth will damage adjacent teeth.
3. A cyst (fluid-filled sac) forms, destroying surrounding structures such as bone or tooth roots
