Wisdom Teeth Removal in Tulsa
Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the last molars to erupt, often in the late teens or early twenties. Because there isn’t always enough room in the jaw, these teeth can become impacted, crowd existing teeth or cause infections and cysts. Removing them proactively prevents future pain and protects your oral health.
The Elite OMFS Difference
Unlike many dental offices, our surgeons hold both dental (DMD) and medical (MD) degrees. We’re trained to safely administer IV sedation and general anesthesia, so you can sleep through the procedure and wake up with minimal memory of the surgery. Our team prides itself on gentle, efficient extractions and attentive follow-up care to ensure a quick recovery.
What to Expect
During your consultation we’ll take a panoramic X-ray or 3-D scan to evaluate the position of your wisdom teeth. On the day of surgery you’ll receive sedation, and Dr. Egan will remove the teeth through small incisions. The procedure usually takes less than an hour. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions and pain medication to keep you comfortable at home.
Recovery Tips
Most patients experience some swelling and minor discomfort for a few days. Plan to rest, eat soft foods and avoid strenuous activities. We’ll schedule a follow-up to check healing and address any concerns. Our team is always available by phone if you need guidance.
