Wisdom Tooth Removal in Langdon, AB
Wisdom teeth — your third molars — are the last teeth to come in, usually in the late teens or early twenties. When there isn’t enough room for them to erupt properly, they can become impacted, crowd your other teeth, or lead to infection. At Langdon Dental Associates, we use advanced 3D imaging to assess each case individually and plan the safest, most comfortable approach for you.
Signs You May Need Your Wisdom Teeth Removed
- Pain or swelling near the back of your jaw
- Impacted teeth (partially or fully trapped under the gum or bone)
- Crowding or pressure on neighbouring teeth
- Recurring infection or gum inflammation
- Difficulty cleaning the area, leading to decay
- Cysts or damage to nearby tooth roots
CBCT-Guided Treatment Planning
Before any procedure, we use CBCT 3D imaging to map the exact position of your wisdom teeth relative to nerves, sinuses, and surrounding teeth. This lets us anticipate complexity ahead of time and walk you through exactly what to expect — no surprises.
Sedation Options: Stay Comfortable, Your Way
We know wisdom tooth removal can feel intimidating. That’s why we offer IV sedation, nitrous oxide, or oral sedation — so you can choose the level of comfort that’s right for you.
- IV Sedation — Deep relaxation with little to no memory of the procedure. Best for complex extractions or dental anxiety.
- Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas) — Fast-acting, light sedation. You stay conscious and can drive yourself home after.
- Oral Sedation — A prescribed sedative taken before your visit for a calm, drowsy experience without an IV.
Our team will help you choose the right option based on your comfort level, the complexity of the extraction, and your medical history.
Faster Healing with PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)
To support faster, more comfortable healing, we offer PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) as part of your extraction. PRF is made from a small sample of your own blood, spun down to concentrate healing growth factors, then placed directly into the extraction socket.
Benefits of PRF include:
- Reduced pain and swelling after surgery
- Lower risk of dry socket
- Faster soft tissue and bone healing
- Uses your body’s own natural healing factors — no synthetic materials
PRF is a simple, same-visit addition to your procedure with no extra downtime.
After Your Procedure
We’ll give you clear, detailed aftercare instructions covering swelling, diet, and oral hygiene — and we’re just a phone call away if you have questions during recovery.
