What it is
Wisdom teeth are the last molars to erupt, usually in the late teens or twenties. When there is not enough room they come in at an angle or stay trapped in the bone, which causes pain, infection and damage to the tooth in front.

X-ray assessment
A digital X-ray shows the angle of the tooth, its roots and how close it sits to the nerve. This determines whether it is a simple or surgical removal — and the price.
Local anaesthetic
The area is fully numbed. You stay awake and aware throughout but should not feel pain.
Removal
A simple tooth is lifted out. An impacted tooth needs a small gum incision and sometimes sectioning of the tooth, then stitches.
Aftercare briefing
We give written instructions and medication. Following the first-24-hour rules is what keeps recovery uneventful.

Common questions — Wisdom Tooth Removal
How much does wisdom tooth removal cost in Lucknow?
At Area Dental Clinic it is ₹3,600 for a wisdom tooth surgery and ₹5,000 if the tooth is impacted, meaning it is trapped in bone or gum and needs a surgical approach. A digital X-ray at ₹250 tells us which applies before you commit.
Does every wisdom tooth need to come out?
No. A wisdom tooth that has erupted straight, bites properly and can be cleaned should be left alone. Removal is indicated when it causes pain, repeated infection, decay, or is damaging the molar in front. We will say so if yours does not need removing.
How long is the recovery?
Swelling peaks around 48 hours and most people are comfortable by day three to five. Stitches, if used, are usually reviewed or removed after a week. Plan a quiet day after the appointment, and avoid a big social or work commitment the next day.
Can I eat after wisdom tooth removal?
Yes, but wait until the numbness wears off, then stick to soft, cool food such as curd, khichdi, dal or ice cream for two days. Avoid hot liquids, straws, spicy food and chewing on that side. Do not rinse forcefully for 24 hours — it can dislodge the clot.
Is wisdom tooth removal dangerous?
It is a routine procedure, but lower wisdom teeth can sit close to a nerve, which is why we take an X-ray first. Where the risk looks significant, we will tell you and discuss referral rather than proceed for the sake of it.
