Understanding Your Treatment
What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars that typically emerge in the back of the mouth between the ages of 17 and 25. While some people have enough room for them to grow in properly, many do not, leading to crowding, impaction, or other oral health issues. When wisdom teeth don't have space to erupt fully, they can become trapped beneath the gums or grow at awkward angles, causing pain, infection, or damage to neighboring teeth. In these cases, removal is often the best solution to protect your long-term oral health and comfort.

- 5 out of 5 stars. “I came to Dr.Shahrokh with a second opinion on a dental problem I had been having. His diagnosis and treatment plan is both reasonable and efficient. He explains everything with visuals (pictures). Coming in, I was expecting to be recommended for two crowns. However, he advised just one, with a redo of a filling for the other. With a previous dentist, I had been recommended to remove my wisdom tooth, but Dr.Shahrokh had the foresight to advise to keep it for the need of a potential bridge.Through pictures, foresight and explanation, Dr.Shahrokh has builds trust quickly. I highly recommend him and this office!” — Brenna

After he saw the X-rays his assistant had taken, he spoke to me in an understandable way.He redirected me to the dentist at home and the explanation was so clear and what I needed to do and say.The main thing was he explained and did not diminish the work the other dentists had done, just told what to say to them when I make my new appointment at home.

When is the best time to have wisdom teeth removed?
The ideal time for wisdom teeth removal is typically during the late teens or early twenties when the roots are not fully developed. However, wisdom teeth can be removed at any age if necessary.
Do all four wisdom teeth have to be extracted?
We will assess your case thoroughly to determine the best course of action. Sometimes we only need to remove one or two, and sometimes three or four.
Is wisdom teeth removal painful?
We take special steps to make sure our patients are comfortable during their wisdom tooth removal appointment.

What Is Recovery Like After Wisdom Teeth Removal in Encinitas, CA?
Healing from wisdom teeth removal is usually quick and manageable with the right care. In the first few days, it's normal to experience some swelling, mild discomfort, and minor bleeding, all of which can be eased with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses. Sticking to soft foods, staying hydrated, and avoiding straws or strenuous activity helps protect the surgical sites. Most patients feel noticeably better within three to four days and return to their usual routine soon after, with full healing following over the next few weeks.
What Happens If You Don't Remove Wisdom Teeth?
Ignoring troublesome wisdom teeth can lead to a cascade of oral health problems over time. Impacted or partially erupted molars create pockets where bacteria thrive, raising the risk of infection, gum disease, and decay in nearby teeth. The pressure they exert can also shift your other teeth out of alignment, undoing past orthodontic work. In some cases, cysts can form around the trapped tooth, damaging bone and roots. Addressing these teeth early helps you avoid more serious complications and protects your overall smile.
How Should You Prepare for Your Wisdom Teeth Extraction?
A little preparation goes a long way toward a smooth procedure and recovery. Before your appointment, Dr. Shahrokh will review your anesthesia options and any instructions, such as fasting beforehand if sedation will be used. It's wise to arrange a ride home, stock up on soft foods like yogurt and smoothies, and set aside a couple of days to rest. Wearing comfortable clothing and preparing a recovery space ahead of time also helps. Following these simple steps ensures you'll feel relaxed and ready on the day of your extraction.
How much does wisdom teeth removal in Encinitas, CA cost?
The cost of wisdom teeth removal depends on a few factors, including the scope of your treatment plan and whether additional imaging or procedures are needed. During your visit, we'll walk you through a clear, itemized estimate before anything begins — no surprises.
