Tooth Extraction
Wisdom Teeth Extractions
At Radiant Smiles Family & Cosmetic Dentistry in Pineville, we strive to protect your oral health. While the goal is always to save your natural teeth, there are times when that is not possible. If necessary to maintain your oral and overall health, teeth extractions may be recommended. For example, if a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or infected, it may be necessary to remove the tooth.
Our team performs many extractions in our Pineville office saving patients the need for specialist care. This includes wisdom teeth extractions. Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of teeth that we get. Some people never get them. Some get two wisdom teeth; others get all four teeth. In rare cases, the teeth erupt without problems. Unfortunately, most often there is not enough space in the mouth for the wisdom teeth to come in which creates problems such as crowding or impacted wisdom teeth.
Reasons For Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Choosing wisdom tooth removal services is not a spur of the moment decision. It requires careful thought and consideration. For teenagers or young adults, extractions may be done preventatively. By removing the teeth early, problems such as pain, cyst formation, or impacted teeth never have a chance to start. X-rays help monitor wisdom teeth development.
The most common reasons for wisdom teeth extractions include:
- Small face or jaw size
- The teeth are impacted or may become impacted
- Damage to the adjacent teeth
- Potential for future dental problems
Signs Of A Problem
If the wisdom teeth begin to erupt, the most common sign of a problem is pain. A tooth that does not have the space to come in correctly is considered impacted. Without enough room, the adjacent teeth may become tilted, twisted, or displaced. This can also lead to tooth infections, swelling, and pain. Additional symptoms of impacted wisdom teeth include:
- Bleeding and/or swollen gums
- Pain
- Swollen jaw
- Bad breath
- Headache
- Jaw pain
- Swollen lymph nodes
Impacted wisdom teeth should not be taken lightly. The teeth need to be extracted to prevent further damage to your oral health.

The team at Radiant Smiles is awesome. Every time I go I have a wonderful experience with the hygienist(s) and Dr. Desameau.
I hate going to the dentist with everything in me! However I love this place and the main dentist is amazing. I’ve had to get fill ins, lots of them over the years and have been to a few places. This dentist did a great job doing them! I will actually go to the dentist now when I need to instead of putting it off forever.
Such an amazing office!! My daughter & I always have a wonderful experience. They’re very sweet and easy going. I’ve been going here the past couple of years and I’ve never had any issues
Today I went there for the first time and the service was so amazing. I’m so satisfied thank you so much!!
The staff was great and personable. The vist was quick and smooth. By far one of the best dentist in Charlotte
Each time I or my family goes to see Dr. D and his staff we are treated so much like family. They are very personable and Dr. D is very informative!!! I love this practice, it's definitely the BEST dental office I've ever been a patient of 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Such a great team! So glad I chose this as my permanent dental office 😊
I have been going to Radiant Smile for 3 years and have never had to wait a single time for my appointment to begin. I even showed up an hour early and they took me an hour early. I’ve called for emergencies and they took me the same day more than once. I’ve had so many bad experiences with other dentists that I began dreading going to dentists. I LOVE the staff at radiant. They are always singing and happy. Trust me, if you want the woman or man of your dreams, stop wishing on a shooting star, and begin visiting Dr. D! My new smile more of a panty dropper than a Ferrari!
Love this dentistry! Heather cleaned my teeth and she took her time with it and was gentle. I really enjoyed talking with her too, she is SO sweet. Thank you all for being so kind and genuine, and understanding my concerns when I got there. Finally, I found a new dentistry! It's small business, so I really felt taken care of today.
Love this dentist office and the staff! You can tell that each of them, including the dentist, truly care about the integrity and health of your teeth and really listen to any concerns you have.
