Wisdom teeth — the last molars to emerge, usually in your late teens or early twenties — often cause problems when there isn’t enough room for them to grow in properly. At Smile Plus Dental Clinic on 152A Street in Surrey, we perform both simple and surgical wisdom tooth extractions in a calm, comfortable setting. Our team takes the time to assess your X-rays, explain your options, and make sure you understand exactly what to expect before we begin. We accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and most major insurance plans.
1- Consultation & Examination
The dentist evaluates your wisdom teeth with X-rays to assess their position and determine if extraction is needed.
2- Anesthesia
Local anesthesia is applied to numb the area. Sedation options may be available for a more comfortable experience.
3- Tooth Removal
The dentist carefully extracts the tooth. If impacted, a small incision may be made, and the tooth may be sectioned for easier removal.
4- Stitching (if needed)
In some cases, dissolvable stitches are placed to aid healing.
5- Recovery & Aftercare
You’ll receive post-operative care instructions, including pain management, swelling reduction, and diet recommendations for a smooth recovery.
The cost of wisdom tooth removal depends on whether the tooth is erupted or impacted, how many teeth need to come out, the complexity of the extraction, and whether sedation is required. We provide a full cost estimate before treatment begins so there are no surprises.
Most dental insurance plans cover a portion of wisdom tooth removal when medically necessary. We also accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), which may cover eligible patients partially or in full. Contact Smile Plus on 152A Street or book a consultation to get an accurate quote for your case.
Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed. But when they don’t have enough room to grow in properly, they can cause problems that affect the rest of your mouth.
We recommend removal when wisdom teeth are impacted and unable to fully emerge, causing pain, swelling, or repeated infections, pushing against neighbouring teeth and affecting alignment, difficult to clean and increasing the risk of decay or gum disease, or causing damage to the surrounding bone.
In some cases there are no obvious symptoms — which is why we check the position of your wisdom teeth during routine checkups and monitor them with X-rays over time.
