Wisdom Tooth Removal in Wrocław - Dental Surgery at Olimp Dent
A wisdom tooth that grows at an incorrect angle, puts pressure on the neighboring tooth, causes pain, gum swelling, or difficulty opening the mouth – these are common reasons why patients come to us for help. At Olimp Dent in Wrocław, we perform wisdom tooth removal based on detailed CBCT diagnostics and under full anesthesia – comfortably, quickly, and safely.
Why Does a Wisdom Tooth Often Need to Be Removed?
Wisdom teeth (third molars) usually erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. However, the modern jaw is often too small to accommodate them in the correct position. A wisdom tooth may remain impacted in the bone, erupt only partially, or grow at an angle. This can lead to inflammation, decay of neighboring teeth, and dental crowding.
Indications for Wisdom Tooth Removal
- a tooth impacted in the bone or partially erupted
- recurrent inflammation of the gum flap (pericoronitis)
- wisdom tooth decay that cannot be effectively treated
- pressure on the root of the adjacent second molar, root resorption
- a follicular cyst around the wisdom tooth
- planned orthodontic treatment when the wisdom tooth may compromise the achieved results
How Is Wisdom Tooth Removal Performed at Olimp Dent?
Surgical consultation and 3D diagnostics – we perform a CBCT scan to assess the position of the tooth in relation to the inferior alveolar nerve and the maxillary sinus.
Treatment plan – the surgeon discusses each stage of the procedure, the type of anesthesia, and the expected recovery time with you.
Local (computer-controlled) anesthesia or inhalation sedation with nitrous oxide for patients who experience dental anxiety.
The procedure itself – in the case of an impacted wisdom tooth, we make a precise incision, divide the roots if necessary, and remove the tooth atraumatically.
Placement of absorbable or conventional sutures – conventional sutures are removed after 7-10 days.
Post-operative instructions and prescription – painkillers and anti-inflammatory medications, and antibiotics if necessary.

Upper vs. Lower Wisdom Tooth Removal
Upper wisdom teeth are usually removed quickly and without major complications. Lower wisdom teeth, especially impacted ones, require precise surgical techniques due to their proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve – at Olimp Dent, we always plan this procedure based on 3D tomography.

FAQ - Questions About Wisdom Tooth Removal
Does wisdom tooth removal hurt?
The procedure itself is painless – it is performed under full anesthesia. After the procedure, you may experience discomfort and swelling for 2-4 days, which can be relieved with pain medication.
How long does wisdom tooth removal take?
An erupted wisdom tooth – approximately 15-30 minutes. A tooth impacted in the bone – 30-60 minutes. The duration depends on the position of the tooth and the structure of its roots.
How long does the wound take to heal after wisdom tooth removal?
The initial healing phase takes 7-10 days, while complete healing of the soft tissues takes about 4 weeks. The bone regenerates over a period of 3-6 months.
Do healthy wisdom teeth need to be removed as a preventive measure?
Not always. If a wisdom tooth has erupted correctly, can be cleaned properly, and does not cause dental crowding, it can be left in place. The decision is always made individually after a consultation.
What can I eat after wisdom tooth removal?
For the first 24 hours – cool, soft foods such as yogurt, cream soups, and smoothies. Avoid hot drinks, alcohol, smoking, and chewing on the side of the extracted tooth for 3-5 days.
Can I return to work the next day?
After a simple extraction – usually yes. After surgical removal of an impacted tooth, we recommend 2-3 days of rest, especially if your job involves physical activity.
