Protect Your Smile Before Problems Start

Wisdom teeth (your third set of molars) tend to make an appearance in your late teens or early twenties—and they don’t always show up quietly. For many people, these teeth can cause discomfort, become impacted, or crowd neighboring teeth. At Dentists of SLO in San Luis Obispo, CA, we offer comfortable, professional wisdom teeth removal to help you avoid pain and future dental problems.
