Dental impactions occur when a tooth is unable to emerge fully through the gums, leading to discomfort, swelling, and potential infection if left untreated. This condition is commonly seen with wisdom teeth but can affect other teeth as well. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are essential to prevent damage to nearby teeth and maintain healthy oral function. At our clinic, we use advanced imaging, precise evaluation, and minimally invasive techniques to ensure comfortable and effective care. Whether the impaction is partial or complete, our specialists create a personalized treatment plan to restore comfort, protect your smile, and support long-term oral health.

1. What is a dental impaction?
A dental impaction occurs when a tooth fails to emerge fully, causing discomfort, swelling, or infection.
2. Are impacted teeth always painful?
Not always. Some impacted teeth remain symptom-free but may still cause hidden damage, so evaluation is essential.
3. How do dentists diagnose impactions?
Dentists use clinical examination along with digital imaging like X-rays or CBCT scans to determine the tooth’s exact position.
4. Is treatment for impactions complicated?
No. With modern minimally invasive methods, treatment is safe, efficient, and far more comfortable than traditional approaches.
5. How long does recovery take after treatment?
Most patients recover within a few days to a week, depending on the severity of the impaction and the procedure performed.
