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.

Wonderful place!! Very helpful and friendly!! I brought my son for a second opinion and got all the answers I was looking for. I highly recommend Radiant Smiles!!
I recently visited this wonderful team and for someone who has battled dental issues for the past decade....this was the best experience of my life! Shannon at the front desk was amazing with setting my appointment and helping me handle all my new patient paperwork. Tonya and Dr. D connection and how he took her experience to help me solve a problem I didn't even recognize was a problem with a crown. Now I can chew again on my right side. I will definitely be bringing my family. Edit: I almost forgot about Dash, my hygienist....she had personality who's smile showed through her mask!
I’ve had traumatic experiences with dentists in the past and I was so nervous coming to a new dentist. I finally worked up the courage to make an appointment and I saw Radiant Smiles had great reviews! Now I know why! The receptionist on the phone was so accommodating and kind. Booking my appointment was fast and easy. Once I arrived, I was greeted and taken back almost right away. My hygienist was unbelievably gentle, understanding and caring. She made sure I was comfortable the whole cleaning while also doing an incredibly throughout job! The dentist himself came in and took a look, explained a few things and encouraged me instead of lecturing me like most dentists do. I HIGHLY recommend making your next appointment with Radiant Smiles. I will never go anywhere else!!
