Wisdom Teeth Removalin Omaha & Lincoln, NE
Wisdom teeth can cause pain, crowding, and other dental problems if they do not come in properly. Wisdom tooth removal helps protect your oral health and relieve discomfort before bigger issues develop.
What is wisdom teeth removal?
Wisdom teeth removal is a common oral surgery procedure used to remove the third molars located at the back of the mouth. These teeth often appear during the late teenage years or early adulthood. In many cases, there is not enough room in the mouth for wisdom teeth to grow properly, which can lead to crowding, infection, or impacted teeth.
At Superior Dental Health, our dentists have training and experience in oral surgery procedures, including wisdom tooth extractions. Using modern technology such as digital X-rays and CBCT imaging, we carefully evaluate the position of wisdom teeth and plan treatment with precision.
The benefits of wisdom teeth removal
Removing wisdom teeth can help prevent a variety of oral health problems while improving comfort and protecting nearby teeth.
Relief from pain and pressure
Wisdom teeth can cause discomfort when they become impacted or crowded. Removal can help relieve pressure and eliminate the source of pain.
Prevent damage to surrounding teeth
When wisdom teeth push against neighboring teeth, they can cause crowding or damage. Removal helps protect the alignment and health of nearby teeth.
Reduce risk of infection
Wisdom teeth are difficult to clean properly, which can increase the risk of decay and gum infections. Removing them can help prevent future oral health problems.

Signs that wisdom teeth may need to be removed include pain in the back of the mouth, swelling, infection, difficulty opening the jaw, or crowding of other teeth. A dental exam and imaging can help determine whether removal is necessary.

Real patients. Real experiences. See what people are saying about their care with us.
Great, fun, and efficient office! People with cool names and great attitudes work there. They took me in for an emergency on a Friday and treated me like family. I highly recommend this office!
It had been very long since I’d been to the dentist so I went into this appointment with a lot of fear and anxiety. Every person I interacted with was so kind and understanding. The woman at the front desk helped me with my insurance, and even called to confirm my visit would be covered when I didn’t have the right insurance card with me. I felt very taken care of during my visit and they put my nerves at ease.
My first experience was positive! They accomplished more than I thought we would in that appointment & I feel confident in the treatment plan. I learned a few things about my particular dental structure that I was not aware of - leads me to think I will have better health in the long run.
Very professional and attentive staff. Scheduling is simple; appointments are on time. The hygienist and dentist have been phenomenal! Highly recommended.
Honestly, I am not a gusher with my compliments so when I say, this was THE BEST dental experience I have ever had in my 64 years of life, you can take it as truth! Plus, the office was able to schedule me on the same day I called as a new client. Extra kudos!
The staff was incredibly friendly and upbeat. The office and exam areas looked clean and organized. Most importantly, they were able to get me in quickly and arranged follow up appointments within the coming weeks around my schedule so I didn't have to wait months or take days off.
