Oral Surgery

Not your average dentist

While many general dentistry offices in the area advertise oral surgery, even “wisdom tooth” removal, the reality is that most of these impacted wisdom teeth that are being diagnosed in these offices are being referred out to an oral surgeon’s office, especially if the patient wants to sleep through the procedure.

Wisdom teeth removal IS LITERALLY ALL WE DO

At Iowa Wisdom Teeth, we only focus on providing the most comfortable, safe and affordable experience for removal of wisdom teeth on teenagers and young adults. All our patients pleasantly sleep through the procedure, with no memory of it afterward. Don’t let your dentist convince you that laughing gas (nitrous) or pills (oral sedatives) will make you comfortable for your surgery appointment – go with the affordable choice that can give the best experience every time.

YOU can decide where to have your wisdom teeth or your child’s wisdom teeth removed

Don’t let your dentist dictate where you go or who you see for this. If you were referred to an oral surgeon’s office for your wisdom teeth, but would like a second opinion, and more affordable option to remove them.

Consults, estimates and x-ray images are always free.

Types of wisdom teeth we routinely remove

Below are all examples of the types of oral surgery extractions we do in our office and with our partners, all patients were under IV deep sedation and slept through the procedure. These are all from completed cases at our office or affiliates.

Part Boney Impacted

50% or less of the crown is covered in bone (red line demarcates bone level in relation to crown).

Full Boney Impacted

50% or more of the crown is covered in bone.
Blue and red line demarcates level of bone compared to crown of tooth.
