Wisdom tooth removal and minor oral surgery in Hyderabad.
Impacted or infected wisdom teeth can cause pain, swelling, food trapping and repeated infections. At SONRISA DENTAL, these procedures are performed with comfort-focused techniques, international-standard sterilization and clear pre- and post-operative instructions.
We also manage other minor oral surgery procedures such as small cyst removal, frenectomy and surgical exposure of teeth, where indicated.

When does a wisdom tooth need removal?
Removal may be advised if:
- There is repeated pain or swelling around the tooth.
- Food keeps getting trapped behind the last tooth.
- The tooth is partially erupted and difficult to clean.
- There is decay in the wisdom tooth or the tooth in front of it.
- It is affecting the alignment of nearby teeth.
- Imaging shows cyst formation or other pathology.
X-rays (and sometimes an OPG) are essential to decide the safest approach and understand the relationship of the tooth to nearby structures.
How wisdom tooth removal is done.
- Local anaesthesia to numb the area thoroughly.
- Gently separating gum tissue to access the tooth (if impacted).
- Sectioning the tooth into pieces if needed for safe removal.
- Cleaning the socket and smoothing sharp bone, if required.
- Placing stitches where indicated.
Throughout the procedure, you may feel pressure and vibration but should not feel sharp pain. If you do, we pause and adjust anaesthesia or technique.
What is recovery like?
- Mild to moderate swelling for a few days is common.
- Soft diet is usually advised initially.
- Pain medicines and sometimes antibiotics may be prescribed.
- Specific instructions on rinsing, ice application and rest are given.
Following the aftercare instructions carefully reduces complications and helps you feel better faster. For sudden severe pain or bleeding, our Emergency Dentistry guidance applies.
