Wisdom Teeth Removal
Did you know that wisdom teeth are a third set of molars? They usually make an appearance between the ages of 17 and 25 years of age. Wisdom teeth can be detected on your x-rays and are usually removed because they are impacted, growing in at the wrong angle, don’t have enough room, and/or to prevent decay because they are too far to reach and keep clean.

Office Visits:
What to expect during your oral surgery visit and after
The day of the visit: Parents and patients should expect a quieter office. Parents will meet one and one with Dr. Gannon where they will have the opportunity to ask any questions they may have.
During Surgery: Parents are welcome to have a complimentary coffee, tea or water while they wait on their child.
Post Surgery: Dr. Gannon’s nurse will briefly explain the post operative care instructions with parents again and will help wheel the patient out to their car.
What is the recovery time for oral surgery?
In an ideal world, we would like 3-4 days after surgery for recovery but we understand life is busy and it’s not always possible so after 2 days most patients are able to return to normal activities.
What are the diet instructions for before and after surgery?
Diet for day of surgery
-
- Soup
- Jell-o
- Applesauce
- Yogurt
- Milkshakes
- Pudding
- Ice Cream
Diet for day after surgery
-
- Pasta
- Mashed Potatoes
- Baked Potatoes
- Scrambled Eggs
- Well-Cooked Vegetables
Insurance and Billing:
Will my insurance cover the cost of oral surgery?
Every insurance policy is different. The easiest way to go about getting coverage information is to call your insurance company and ask about out-of-network benefits. A pre-determination will be sent the day the treatment plan is made and you can expect a response within 6-8 weeks.
