Surgical Wisdom Tooth Extraction and Dental Extractions in Gdańsk – Prodent

Is your wisdom tooth aching? Do you feel pain radiating to your ear, jaw, or neck? Perhaps your wisdom tooth should have been removed a long time ago. Wisdom tooth extraction in Gdańsk is one of the most common oral surgery procedures – and one of the most feared by patients. At Prodent, we understand that this fear is real. That’s why, for over 40 years, we have done everything to ensure that every tooth extraction in Gdańsk proceeds calmly, pain-free, and with full support at every stage of treatment.
Wisdom teeth are the last to erupt – usually between the ages of 17 and 25. The problem is that for most of us, there simply isn’t enough space for them in the dental arch. Instead of erupting properly above the gum, the wisdom tooth becomes impacted in the bone – either completely or partially. This is when problems begin: recurrent inflammation, swelling, difficulty opening the mouth, and pain that prevents sleep.

When should you consider wisdom tooth removal?

Not every wisdom tooth requires immediate extraction. However, there are situations where delaying the decision can genuinely harm your health. It is advisable to visit an oral surgeon in Gdańsk if:

  • the wisdom tooth is impacted in the bone and has no chance of erupting correctly,
  • you experience recurrent inflammation of the gum flap (pericoronitis) – pain, swelling, fever,
  • the wisdom tooth is growing at an angle and is pressing on the roots of the adjacent second molar,
  • caries appear on the wisdom tooth or the adjacent tooth, which you cannot reach with a toothbrush,
  • your orthodontist has recommended extraction to create space before orthodontic treatment.

If you recognize even one of these symptoms – do not wait. An early decision for surgical wisdom tooth extraction in Gdańsk prevents complications that can be much more serious than the procedure itself.

How is a wisdom tooth extraction performed at Prodent?

Before we do anything, we will thoroughly examine you. Every tooth extraction at our clinic is preceded by imaging diagnostics – an X-ray or CBCT computed tomography performed on a Planmeca Promax 3D device. Thanks to the three-dimensional image, the surgeon can see the exact position of the roots relative to the mandibular nerve and maxillary sinus – and can precisely plan the procedure even before picking up the instruments.

The procedure itself proceeds step by step:

1. Painless Anesthesia
Painless Anesthesia – we use The Wand computer-controlled system, which administers the anesthetic slowly and at a constant pressure. No sudden prick, no unpleasant tissue distension. Even patients who are terrified of injections say after the procedure that they felt almost nothing.
2. Extraction
Extraction – once the anesthesia takes effect, the surgeon proceeds with tooth removal. For impacted wisdom teeth, it is necessary to incise the gum and free the tooth from the bone – sometimes divided into fragments to remove it as minimally invasively as possible.
3. Suture Placement
Suture Placement – the wound is carefully closed with absorbable or non-absorbable sutures, depending on the case.
4. Post-operative Instructions
Post-operative Instructions – you leave the clinic with specific written recommendations and full knowledge of what to expect in the coming days.

The entire procedure usually takes 20 to 60 minutes – depending on the complexity of the case.

Not just wisdom teeth – the full spectrum of tooth extractions in Gdańsk

Tooth extractions at Prodent in Gdańsk are not limited to wisdom teeth. We also perform:

  • simple extractions of primary and permanent teeth,
  • surgical removal of tooth roots,
  • extractions of multi-rooted and fractured teeth below the gum line,
  • procedures under sedation – for patients with severe dental anxiety.

Sedation is an option for those who wish to sleep through the appointment or simply cannot imagine undergoing the procedure fully conscious. You remain in contact with your surroundings, but stress completely disappears. This solution is particularly popular for more extensive extractions.

Your comfort is our top priority. Therefore, we plan each tooth extraction in Gdańsk individually, discuss every step with you, and provide post-operative care that genuinely shortens healing time.

FAQ – Surgical Wisdom Tooth Extraction Gdańsk – Prodent

1. Does wisdom tooth extraction hurt?
This is the question we hear most often – and we understand why. The answer is: the procedure itself does not hurt because we perform it under local anesthesia. At Prodent, we use The Wand computer-controlled system, which administers the anesthetic slowly and at a constant pressure – without a sudden prick and without the unpleasant sensation of tissue distension. The surgeon proceeds with the extraction only after confirming that the area is completely numb. During the procedure, you may feel pressure and vibrations from the instruments, but you should not feel pain. If any discomfort arises – we stop and supplement the anesthesia. If the injection itself causes you severe anxiety, ask us about sedation – you can undergo the procedure in a state of deep relaxation, without stress or tension.
2. How long does pain last after wisdom tooth extraction?
Pain after extraction is a natural bodily reaction and usually subsides within 3–5 days. It is typically strongest on the first and second day – then gradually weakens. After 7–10 days, the tooth socket is sufficiently healed that it should no longer cause problems. The intensity of discomfort depends on the difficulty of the procedure – a simple extraction of a wisdom tooth that has erupted above the gum line is associated with milder discomfort than the surgical removal of a deeply impacted tooth. Every patient leaves Prodent with an individually tailored pain management therapy – usually, over-the-counter anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen or ketoprofen are sufficient. In more extensive cases, the surgeon may recommend a short course of antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection and support healing.
3. How long does surgical wisdom tooth extraction take?
It depends on the case. A simple extraction of a wisdom tooth that has properly erupted above the gum line usually takes 5–15 minutes. Surgical removal of an impacted tooth – requiring gum incision, bone removal, and possibly dividing the tooth into fragments – can take 30 to 60 minutes, and in exceptionally difficult cases, slightly longer. The total appointment time must include diagnostic discussion, anesthesia administration, and post-operative instructions. It is advisable to set aside a few hours and not plan demanding tasks immediately after the procedure – especially driving, if you opt for sedation.
4. How do I know if my wisdom tooth requires surgical removal?
We assess this precisely during the first consultation visit. We perform an X-ray or CBCT 3D tomography using a Planmeca Promax 3D device, which shows a three-dimensional image of the roots, nerves, and bone structures. Based on this, the surgeon evaluates whether the wisdom tooth can erupt properly, whether extraction is necessary, and what its course will be. Surgical wisdom tooth removal is usually necessary when the tooth is impacted in the bone, grows at an angle pressing on adjacent teeth, causes recurrent inflammation, or is inaccessible for proper hygiene and decayed. The decision is always made jointly with you – after a thorough explanation of the situation and discussion of all options.
5. What should you not do after a tooth extraction?
The first 24–48 hours after extraction are crucial for the formation of a blood clot in the tooth socket – without it, healing does not proceed properly. During this time, absolutely avoid:

rinsing your mouth under pressure and drinking through a straw,
smoking and consuming alcohol,
hot drinks and meals,
intense physical exertion (gym, running) for at least 48–72 hours.

For the first week, limit hard, crunchy, and sticky foods that could irritate the wound or dislodge sutures. Brush your teeth normally – carefully avoiding the extraction site. Detailed post-operative recommendations will be provided to you in writing before you leave the clinic.
6. What is a dry socket and can I avoid it?
Dry socket (alveolitis sicca) is a complication that occurs when the blood clot in the tooth socket prematurely dislodges or disintegrates. The exposed bone and nerve endings cause very severe, throbbing pain – usually appearing 2–4 days after extraction – which radiates to the ear, temple, or neck and does not respond to standard painkillers. The risk of dry socket is significantly increased by smoking, drinking through a straw, rinsing the mouth under pressure, and intense physical exertion immediately after the procedure. Treatment involves irrigating the socket and placing a special dressing in the clinic – usually, the pain significantly decreases after just one visit. If you experience alarming symptoms after an extraction at Prodent, call us – we provide quick contact and an urgent follow-up appointment.
7. Can two wisdom teeth be removed during one visit?
Yes – and we often do. Removing two wisdom teeth on the same side (upper and lower) during one visit is a well-tolerated procedure. The other side of the mouth remains functional, which facilitates eating and hygiene during healing. Removing all four wisdom teeth at once is technically possible but rarely recommended – extensive swelling and difficulty eating for the first few days can be a significant burden. Such a decision is always made individually, after discussing with you and assessing your regenerative capabilities. If you plan to extract several wisdom teeth, inform us in advance – we will help you plan the optimal schedule of procedures and prepare you for time off work or other necessary arrangements.
8. How long does healing take after surgical wisdom tooth extraction?
Healing proceeds in stages. In the first 24–72 hours, cheek swelling appears, usually peaking on the second day, then gradually subsiding. Pain diminishes daily. Sutures are removed after 7–10 days (or dissolve on their own – depending on the material type). Soft tissues heal within 2–4 weeks. Full bone healing of the tooth socket takes 3–6 months – but you will not feel this process, as discomfort subsides much earlier. Healing significantly accelerates when you follow post-operative recommendations, avoid smoking and alcohol, and rinse your mouth with saline solution from the second day after the procedure.
9. What to do with the gap after a permanent tooth extraction?
Extracting a permanent tooth is an irreversible decision. The absence of a tooth in the arch leads to gradual shifting of adjacent teeth, occlusal overload, and loss of alveolar bone – therefore, it is worth planning a replacement as soon as possible. The most durable and natural solution is a dental implant, which restores the tooth root and prevents bone loss – in selected cases, it can even be placed immediately after extraction (immediate implant). Alternatives include a prosthetic bridge or a removable denture. At Prodent Gdańsk, we offer a full spectrum of implant and prosthetic restorations – during a consultation visit, we will discuss which solution will be best for your case.
10. Is tooth extraction safe during pregnancy?
Yes – in justified cases, extraction during pregnancy is safe and sometimes necessary. Chronic inflammation in the oral cavity can negatively affect the course of pregnancy, so treating a tooth is more important than postponing it. The optimal time for the procedure is the second trimester (14th–27th week) – the risk to the fetus is lowest then, and the mother's well-being is usually best. Before the visit, be sure to consult your gynecologist and inform the dentist about the course of your pregnancy and any medications you are taking. At Prodent, we use anesthetics safe during pregnancy and limit exposure to X-rays to a minimum – or forgo them entirely when not absolutely necessary.
