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.

Its a VERY clean and friendly office! Glad I chose this dentist a❤
I’ve been going to this dentist for a very long time. I feel very comfortable every time I go because all the team members/ Doctor C are so friendly and so reassuring of how much they care. The last few times I’ve been I’ve had Rhonda as my hygienist and she is just great and recommended, I’ve had plenty and she’s the friendliest I’ve had but they’re all friendly. Dr. C is also the best Dr around and I just love going everytime!
I started going here a year ago after moving to the area since we take a lot of the children from my work here. The staff is always very friendly (I particularly like Holly who is just as sweet and funny as she can be). The hygienist always seem very thorough in their cleanings without ever making it uncomfortable or painful. The office is always very clean and positive. I always recommend this practice to my friends and the Foster families I work with.
Okay so this is my second visit and today I had to have two teeth pulled that had broken in my mouth and there was some infection in there. The staff was wonderful and I would recommend anyone to go to them the staff there are great and friendly.
I have been here for 4 visits so far for a lot of work. The office staff is professional, courteous, and friendly. Dr. C is excellent, explained all the procedures and I have never felt a bit of pain. I would recommend Salisbury Family Dentistry to anyone looking for a dentist.
Really great staff! The office was clean and comfy, the appointment was on time, the dental hygienist was gentle, the dentist was knowledgeable and thorough and the ladies and gentlemen behind the counter were just lovely....it was the best experience ive ever had at the dentist.
This was the best dentist experience I ever had I will never go anywhere else thank u. All
