Oral Surgery & Wisdom Tooth Removal in Prestwich, Manchester
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, usually develop between the ages of 16 and 25. While some people have no issues, others experience discomfort, crowding, or infection due to impacted wisdom teeth. If left untreated, these problems can worsen and affect your oral health.
At Oakley Dental in Prestwich, we offer professional oral surgery to safely remove wisdom teeth and relieve pain. Our experienced team use advanced techniques and gentle care to ensure the process is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Wisdom teeth may need to be removed if they:
- Are impacted or fail to emerge properly
- Cause pain or swelling
- Lead to infections, decay or gum problems
- Push against other teeth, causing misalignment
Depending on your case, we may recommend a straightforward extraction or a minor surgical procedure. We’ll assess your wisdom teeth with X-rays and talk you through every step. Your comfort is our top priority – local anaesthetic is always used, and sedation can be arranged if needed.
You’re in safe hands with the oral surgery team at Oakley Dental. We’ve helped countless patients in Prestwich and across Manchester get relief from wisdom tooth pain with fast, effective treatment. Let us help you take the next step towards a healthier, more comfortable smile.

Do all wisdom teeth need removing?
No, only problematic or impacted wisdom teeth typically need extraction. We’ll assess yours and advise the best course of action.
Is the procedure painful?
You’ll be given a local anaesthetic to numb the area. Most patients report feeling pressure but no pain during the procedure.
How long is the recovery?
Recovery usually takes a few days. We’ll give you tailored aftercare instructions to ensure smooth healing.
Will I be awake during surgery?
Yes, most wisdom teeth extractions are done under local anaesthetic. If you’re nervous, we can discuss sedation options.
