Wisdom tooth surgery in Nairobi

What is wisdom teeth removal?

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last teeth to erupt in the mouth, usually between the ages of 17 and 25. Often, the jaw lacks sufficient space to accommodate these teeth properly. As a result, wisdom teeth can become impacted or trapped beneath the gum tissue or surrounding teeth, leading to various complications .

Wisdom teeth removal or impacted molar disimpaction, is an oral surgical procedure that involves the removal of one or more wisdom teeth. This procedure is done to remove impacted molars, or when there is insufficient space in the jaw for them to erupt properly. This helps in alleviating pain and preventing further complications.

At Arrow Dental, wisdom tooth extraction is performed under local anaesthetic with sedation options for anxious patients. Simple erupted teeth can be removed in 20–30 minutes; impacted teeth require a small surgical procedure but recovery is usually straightforward.

3D Digital Imaging

Precise CBCT scans at our Digital Centre reveal wisdom tooth position, root anatomy, and nerve location for safe removal.

Benefits of Timely Wisdom Teeth Removal

Why remove problem wisdom teeth

Wisdom teeth that don’t fit cause more damage the longer they stay. Timely removal protects your other teeth and your comfort.

Ends the pain

Impacted wisdom teeth often cause continuous pain and pressure that only extraction can fully relieve, restoring day‑to‑day comfort.

Prevents crowding

By removing wisdom teeth before they push against adjacent teeth, you protect your natural alignment and safeguard any orthodontic work you’ve invested in.

Stops infection risk

Partially erupted wisdom teeth create openings in the gums where bacteria can collect and cause repeated gum infections. Removal eliminates this risk.

Protects neighbouring teeth

Wisdom teeth can press against the second molars beside them, wearing down enamel or causing cavities. Extraction prevents this further damage.

Improves oral hygiene

Once your impacted molars are removed, your back teeth will be much easier to clean, helping you prevent gum disease and decay.

Prevents cyst formation

Long‑impacted wisdom teeth can develop cysts that damage the jawbone and surrounding structures. Early removal avoids these serious complications.

Your options

Removal techniques for every situation

We match the technique to the tooth. Simple erupted teeth are quick; deeply impacted teeth need surgical care.
  • Simple Extraction (Erupted Tooth): For wisdom teeth that have fully erupted with visible crowns. This straightforward procedure is performed under local anaesthetic and usually takes 20–30 minutes. Recovery is quick, with minimal discomfort, making it the easiest option for problem wisdom teeth.
  • Surgical Extraction (Impacted Tooth): hen wisdom teeth are trapped beneath the gum or bone, a small incision is made to gently access and remove the tooth. Surgical extraction takes longer and requires a slightly extended recovery period, but it prevents ongoing pain, infection, and damage to neighbouring teeth.
  • All Four at Once: Some patients choose to have all four wisdom teeth removed in a single visit under sedation.
  • Sedation Options: For anxious patients or complex cases, we offer oral sedation or IV sedation to ensure a calm, stress‑free experience. Sedation options are discussed during your consultation.

Common questions

Wisdom Teeth FAQs

Why are wisdom teeth often removed?
Wisdom teeth or molars often come in at awkward angles, get stuck (impacted), or cause crowding and pain. Removal prevents these problems and protects the surrounding teeth.
Does everyone need their wisdom teeth removed?
Not always. If your third molars come in straight and have enough space, they may not need extraction. We assess each case individually during your consultation.
How much does wisdom teeth removal cost in Kenya?
Wisdom tooth removal costs depend on whether the tooth is straightforward or impacted. The consultation includes an assessment and clear quote.
Is the procedure painful?
No. Wisdom tooth extraction is done under local anaesthetic, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Some swelling and soreness for a few days afterwards is normal.
How long is the recovery?
Most patients are back to normal activities within 3 to 5 days. We provide clear aftercare instructions to keep you comfortable and healing well.
What can I eat after wisdom teeth removal?
Initially, you should stick to a soft, bland diet for the first 24-48 hours. Gradually reintroduce solid foods as your mouth heals and the discomfort subsides.
At what age should wisdom teeth be removed?
Most wisdom teeth that need to come out are removed between ages 17 and 25, when recovery is fastest. Older patients can still have them removed safely if needed.
How do i know if my wisdom teeth are coming in?
Discomfort is the main sign that your wisdom teeth are coming in. Your gums will be swollen and you might experience jaw pain.
