A Space Problem

When the Jaw Becomes Too Narrow

Wisdom teeth are a relic from our ancestors. In the modern, often somewhat smaller jaw, these latecomers today frequently lack the space to align themselves straight in the dental arch.

  • Tooth Displacement: When wisdom teeth attempt to break through, they can exert high pressure and shift previously straight teeth (for example, after orthodontic treatment).
  • Chronic Inflammation: A wisdom tooth that has only partially emerged often forms hard-to-clean pockets – a common cause of recurring, painful gum inflammation.
  • Risk to the Neighbouring Tooth: If the wisdom tooth lies sideways in the jaw, it can press against the root of the adjacent tooth and damage it in the long term.

Timely removal prevents these problems before pain or actual damage to the dentition occurs.

Wisdom Tooth Surgery - MEDICAL ART München Bogenhausen
Our Treatment Approach

Calm, Precise, and Careful

At MEDICAL ART, we always work with the goal of protecting the surrounding gum tissue and jawbone as much as possible during removal. For this, we use digital 3D X-ray technology (DVT/CBCT).

With this three-dimensional image, we can identify the exact course of the fine nerve pathways in the lower jaw beforehand and know precisely how the tooth roots are positioned. This knowledge supports a careful and targeted surgical approach.

The Treatment Process

Why Surgery at Our Clinic?

Three-Dimensional Planning

Through the DVT scan, we know the anatomical characteristics of your jaw before the operation, making the procedure more predictable and plannable.

Gentle Surgical Technique

Our medical team works in a minimally invasive manner. A careful approach directly supports the body in a complication-free healing phase.

Supportive Pain Management

Whether with local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia – the procedure is generally low in discomfort.

Focus on Wound Healing

We carefully suture the small wound and, upon request, offer supportive autologous blood procedures (PRF) to gently promote natural wound healing.

Patient Voices

Experiences of Our Patients

Ich bin mit MedicalArt rundum zufrieden. Mir wurden in der Praxis die Weisheitszähne entfernt, außerdem wurde eine Zyste professionell behandelt – alles verlief reibungslos und gut organisiert. Das gesamte Team ist sehr freundlich, einfühlsam und hat sich Zeit genommen, alle Schritte verständlich zu erklären. Auch bei der Zahnreinigung und den weiteren zahnärztlichen Behandlungen fühle ich mich bestens aufgehoben. Die Praxis ist modern und gut strukturiert, die Atmosphäre ist angenehm. Ich kann die Praxis uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Your Path to Treatment

The Steps of Tooth Removal

01

Diagnostics & Consultation

We review your X-ray images and assess whether a wisdom tooth really needs to be removed or whether it has space to grow healthily.

02

Discussing the Procedure

We calmly discuss how many teeth should be removed at once and which form of anaesthesia is most comfortable for you.

03

The Operation

The wisdom tooth is gently released from the jaw under effective anaesthesia. Upon request, we use biological fibrin (PRF) to promote healing.

04

The Healing Phase

We provide you with precise tips for the first few days. After approximately one week, we see you again for a brief wound check.

Treatment in a Calm Atmosphere

The thought of 'having teeth pulled' is associated with anxiety and worry for most people. We know that. At the MEDICAL ART clinic, we therefore place particular emphasis on a calm, empathetic atmosphere. If you have significant concerns, we are happy to offer you the procedure accompanied by our anaesthesia team under <strong>proven, specialist-supervised general anaesthesia</strong>.

Questions About Wisdom Tooth Surgery

No, absolutely not. If there is enough space in the jaw, the tooth is growing straight, and it can be well cleaned during oral hygiene, it can remain without issue. We only recommend removal if it is growing at an angle, causing inflammation, or endangering the neighbouring teeth.
If the tooth has already fully and normally erupted into the mouth, we can often simply remove it gently like any other tooth. However, if the tooth lies sideways or is still completely hidden beneath the gum in the bone, we need to surgically move aside a small piece of the covering tissue to reach the tooth.
Thanks to the anaesthesia, the procedure itself is usually low in discomfort – you typically feel at most a slight rocking or pressure. In the first days afterwards, mild wound pain and some swelling ('chipmunk cheeks') are completely normal. With gentle external cooling and standard painkillers, this healing phase can be very well managed in our experience.
That depends on how deep the tooth was and whether we removed one or all four teeth at once. We provide a sick note for a few days depending on the procedure. For the body's sake, you should avoid sports and heavier physical exertion for about one to two weeks.
Yes, this is often even advisable, because you then only have to go through one operation and one healing phase. Especially when all teeth are to be removed at once, many of our patients opt for accompaniment under general anaesthesia.
