Achieve Better Results With Advanced Imaging Technology

We use some of the latest dental technology to ensure your wisdom teeth procedure is efficient, safe, and tailored to your needs. The Axeos CBCT scanner produces 3-D images that allow us to plan every detail of your treatment. This helps us determine the exact position of your wisdom teeth and identify any potential complications.

The Schick AE Sensor captures highly detailed X-rays, giving us a clear view of your tooth roots and bone structure. In addition, the Overjet system uses artificial intelligence to assist in diagnosing and planning your treatment, ensuring no detail is overlooked.

With advanced imaging and careful surgical techniques, your wisdom teeth experience is predictable and successful.

Experience Maximum Comfort During  Wisdom Teeth Surgery

Before your wisdom teeth procedure, we'll review your preferences and choose the best sedation option for your needs. Laughing gas provides light relaxation for a calmer experience, while oral conscious sedation offers deeper relaxation.

You can settle in with a warm blanket or neck pillow, while TVs and headphones help distract and relax you during treatment. Lip balm keeps you comfortable, and our caring team checks in regularly to ensure you remain relaxed.

By combining sedation, amenities, and a gentle approach, we create an atmosphere where your experience is as stress-free and comfortable as possible.

This was the BEST dentist office I had ever been in. It was absolutely wonderful. The people was very pleasant. Very nice. Was very concerned about your comfort and your well-being. They could hold an intelligent conversation with you. Didn't make you feel less than it was. Definitely a one-of-a-kind experience for me. I would advise every single person that I know to go to this dentistry. They are very very welcoming. You will not have a problem in going back to these people. The only sad part about it is I can only give five stars. Love these people! I am so glad that I chose them.

I’ve been a patient with dr. Elrod for 20 plus years. Hands down the best dentist in the country! All the work I’ve had done is the best quality and lasts. I still have some CEREC that have lasted over 20 years. This is the only dentist I’ve been to that I’m actually excited to go to.

Above and beyond exceptional service!! The office is stunning and the staff are exceptional. I'm definitely appreciative of the tour and gift! Very friendly and knowledgeable. They took their time and didn't make me feel like just another patient. Most importantly, I felt comfortable and heard. My only regret is not becoming a new patient sooner. Never had an experience like that at a dental office before! Thank you DDS!

I did an in office teeth whitening appointment. I thought front staff very friendly and my appointment was on time. They actually accommodated an earlier time for me. I am pleased with the results and would definitely recommend this facility! The staff was very friendly and listened to my concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wisdom Teeth Removal

Why do wisdom teeth need to be removed?
Wisdom teeth are often removed if they are impacted, coming in at an angle, or causing crowding. Removing them can prevent pain, infection, and damage to neighboring teeth, while also making it easier to maintain good oral hygiene.
How long does recovery take from wisdom teeth removal?
You should recover in about a week, though full healing may take a few weeks. Following your aftercare instructions carefully helps reduce swelling, prevent infection, and speed up the healing process.
What should I eat after wisdom teeth removal?
Soft foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, smoothies, and soup are best during the first few days. Avoid hot, crunchy, or spicy foods until your dentist confirms your mouth has healed enough to handle them.
