Wisdom Tooth Extraction Dubai | From AED 300

Wisdom Tooth Extraction in Dubai

Wisdom teeth causing pain, swelling, or crowding? At Top Smile Dental Clinic, Oud Metha, our DHA-licensed oral surgeons perform safe, comfortable wisdom tooth extractions — from simple removals to complex surgical extractions. Pricing starts from AED 300.

When Does a Wisdom Tooth Need to Be Removed?

Not all wisdom teeth need extraction. Your dentist will recommend removal if you experience:

• Impaction — the tooth is trapped beneath the gum or growing sideways into the adjacent molar
• Recurring pericoronitis — inflammation and infection of the gum tissue around a partially erupted wisdom tooth
• Crowding — the wisdom tooth is pushing other teeth out of alignment
• Decay — difficult-to-reach wisdom teeth that develop cavities and cannot be restored effectively
• Cyst formation — fluid-filled sacs forming around an unerupted wisdom tooth, which can damage the jawbone
• Repeated food trapping — causing decay in the adjacent second molar

A panoramic X-ray (OPG) at our clinic will show the exact position, root shape, and proximity to the nerve canal — helping us plan the safest approach.

Simple vs Surgical Extraction

The Extraction Procedure — Step by Step

1. X-ray and assessment — Panoramic X-ray to evaluate root shape, impaction angle, and proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve.
2. Anaesthesia — Local anaesthesia numbs the area completely. Sedation is available if you prefer to be relaxed or asleep.
3. Access — For impacted teeth, a small incision is made in the gum. Bone covering the tooth may be removed.
4. Extraction — The tooth is loosened and removed. Impacted teeth may be divided into sections for easier removal.
5. Cleaning — The socket is cleaned of any debris or infection.
6. Closure — Dissolvable stitches are placed if needed. Gauze is applied to control bleeding.

Recovery Timeline

Frequently Asked Questions

Is wisdom tooth extraction painful?

You will not feel pain during the procedure — local anaesthesia ensures complete numbness. After the anaesthesia wears off, mild to moderate discomfort is normal for 2-3 days and is well-managed with prescribed painkillers.

Should I remove all four wisdom teeth at once?

It depends on your case. If all four are problematic, removing them in one session saves you multiple recovery periods. For complex cases, your surgeon may recommend doing one side at a time.

What should I eat after extraction?

Stick to soft, cool foods for the first 48 hours: yogurt, smoothies (no straw), mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, soups (lukewarm, not hot). Gradually return to normal foods as comfort allows.

What is dry socket and how do I prevent it?

Dry socket occurs when the blood clot dislodges from the extraction site, exposing bone. Prevent it by avoiding smoking, spitting, using straws, and vigorous rinsing for the first 48 hours.

Does insurance cover wisdom tooth extraction in Dubai?

Most dental insurance plans in the UAE cover wisdom tooth extraction partially or fully when it is medically necessary. Our team will help you check your coverage before treatment.
