Wisdom Teeth Extractions – Corpus Christi, TX
Removing Extra, Unnecessary Teeth
Wisdom teeth aren’t necessary for a healthy, fully functioning mouth. You may be able to keep them as long as they can erupt properly, but if that’s not the case, they’ll need to be removed. Dr. Kerr can extract problematic wisdom teeth in-house so that you don’t have to deal with the stress and uncertainty that tends to occur when you have to visit a separate specialist. Get in touch with us if you’re expecting someone in your family to receive their wisdom teeth soon.

When is Wisdom Tooth Extraction Really Necessary?
A wisdom tooth extraction is necessary if:
- The wisdom tooth is unable to fully erupt through the gums or can’t erupt at all.
- The wisdom tooth grows in a way that it starts pushing the other teeth around, potentially crowding them and causing alignment issues.
- A cyst (which could eventually cause damage to the jaw and nerves) starts to form around the teeth.
- You are unable to brush and floss around the wisdom tooth, allowing cavities and gum disease to form.
