Wisdom Teeth in Laurel, MD



Wisdom teeth, or third molars, usually appear in adults between the ages of 17 and 25 and are the final set of molars that most people get. While most will eventually have their wisdom teeth removed, not everyone needs to do so. Most dental professionals will recommend having your wisdom teeth removed if you experience any of the following scenarios:

Wisdom Teeth Extraction in Laurel, MD

Your wisdom teeth do not fit in your mouth. Most people have 28 teeth before wisdom teeth erupt. Many do not have enough room in their jaw for 32 teeth and this may cause teeth to become impacted. Impacted means the wisdom teeth cannot fully erupt or they may become misaligned. Removing the wisdom teeth can prevent impaction and overcrowding in your jaw.

You experience chronic pain in your gums around your wisdom teeth. Pain in your gums can be an indication of infection. Infections are common around partially erupted wisdom teeth because food and bacteria get trapped in these areas. Having your wisdom teeth removed can prevent further infection.

Your wisdom teeth do not come in straight. Often, wisdom teeth will not grow in straight and can cause your teeth to shift and move over time. To prevent your teeth from moving, removing your wisdom teeth is often recommended.

Your wisdom teeth are causing tooth decay to adjacent teeth. Wisdom teeth can be difficult to keep clean because of their location in the mouth. Flossing and brushing can be challenging and without good oral care, gum disease and tooth decay can develop. Removing your wisdom teeth can prevent tooth decay issues in surrounding teeth as well as the wisdom teeth.

Cannot recommend Laurel Pines and Dr. Samad highly enough. I came in on a Sunday with a dental emergency (an implant I had gotten from another surgeon had been placed incorrectly, and was being rejected from my body thus causing an immense amount of pain) and I was seen immediately. Dr. Samad and his colleagues not only diagnosed the issue right away, but they also saw to it that I was seen for a corrective surgery within the same week.

First off, I never give anyone 5 stars, however, on a day like today I am. I was not paid to write this nor do I work for the company. I am usually the skeptic when it comes to those things so I want to make it known. I am a customer in need of some major help for my other half. This company is very professional, courteous, clean and respectful. I really appreciate Tammy and staff (forgot the young lady's name at the front desk along with Tammy).

Came in for an emergency root canal on a Saturday afternoon . Dr. Samad and all the staff were amazing. They were very supportive, willing to answer all questions and I could tell they genuinely wanted to help me get better. I highly recommend and they truly deserve 5 stars because 5 star service is what I received.

Dr. Samad is awesome! He is personable, attentive and honest. Excellent service from Tammy in the front office as well. I am excited to be a part of this office long term.

Dr. Samead and Tammy went above and beyond for me when I called with a dental emergency. They took their entire Saturday to help me and I'm in love with the results! Highly recommend !

Dr. Samad and his team we're absolutely amazing. I was nervous about my procedure and didn't know what to expect. They made me so comfortable while I was there. Today is my first day in a long time with no pain! I am very thankful and grateful for they work they've done.
