Dedicated to maxillofacial surgery for wisdom teeth in Barcelona
Are your teeth moving because of the eruption of wisdom teeth? Do you have pain and do you think it may be caused by wisdom teeth? If so, come to our clinic and our professionals will make a diagnosis. At Birbe Clinic, we carry out a maxillofacial operation for wisdom teeth in Barcelona through our experts, to eliminate all the problems they may cause you.
Wisdom teeth can cause many problems with our oral health. In addition, for a long time, they are dental pieces (posterior third molar) that we no longer use and that, on some occasions, their removal causes problems, producing what we call retained wisdom teeth. Most of the population does not have enough space for the third molars to grow or emerge normally.
The consequences can be multiple: pain, injuries to the teeth, movement of the teeth, and other problems such as caries and gum disease, due to the difficulty of being able to optimally clean this area, and cysts and tumors associated with retained teeth. For this reason, maxillofacial surgery is the most effective solution to put an end to these harmful consequences for the patient.
Maxillofacial surgery: wisdom tooth extraction
Through this intervention, wisdom tooth extraction is the most appropriate option. But in which cases is this procedure appropriate? A wisdom tooth can be partially retained (part of the crown is visible) or completely retained (when it never goes through the gum).
In both cases, however, problems can occur:
- the tooth grows against the second molar and can erode it (rhizolysis),
- Inflammation and infection of the surrounding gum, creating swelling and pus drainage (pericoronaritis)
- that it is trapped inside the jawbone and cysts can appear.
- It can push the other teeth and move them producing crowding, if you have had orthodontics the dental position can recur.
It is in these cases when symptoms may start to appear and reduce the patient’s quality of life, due to pain or other problems.
This is when our specialists come into play, carrying out the maxillofacial operation, a small operation which, in this case, consists of an incision that allows the wisdom teeth to be reached and extracted. Both the extraction of the lower and upper wisdom teeth is rather a simple operation, although the extraction of the upper wisdom teeth is usually quicker and allows for a milder postoperative period.
How is wisdom tooth surgery performed by the experts at Birbe Clinic?
The extraction of maxillofacial wisdom teeth performed in our clinic is basic, although the postoperative period can be a little uncomfortable, especially surgery on lower wisdom teeth, as we have mentioned above.
The extraction is performed under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation as an ambulatory procedure. Typically we remove all retained wisdom teeth in a single procedure. Normally, after the operation there is some swelling in the area, which may persist for a week. An anti-inflammatory medication should be prescribed and a soft diet should be followed so that the area can heal properly.
If there was an infection before surgery, the patient must follow an antibiotic regimen before and after the surgery. Hygiene and smoking avoidance is an essential aspect to consider, avoiding future infections after the intervention.

What does maxillofacial wisdom tooth surgery consist of: risks and other aspects?
As we have already mentioned, this surgery consists of the extraction of the posterior third molars, both the lower and upper ones. The risks that it may entail are that, after surgery, the area may become infected or that the wound may not heal properly. It is therefore important to eat a soft diet and maintain good hygiene.Wisdom teeth or wisdom teeth appear in the mouth at around 18 years of age. It is advisable to have a panoramic X-ray at this age, or even a year earlier, to assess whether they exist and their position.
Where can a wisdom tooth maxillofacial operation be performed?
At Birbe Clinic we have been in the sector for more than 20 years, performing maxillofacial surgery under the supervision of the best dental experts. Furthermore, our team of professionals work together to be able to carry out different treatments at the same time.
In maxillofacial surgery, how much do the clinics charge for wisdom teeth?
The price will depend on the position of the wisdom teeth and the complexity of the surgery required to extract them. Often we need a CT scan to assess the proximity of the mandibular dental nerve to the roots of the lower wisdom teeth. A panoramic X-ray is always necessary. Once all the diagnostic tests have been studied, we will explain to you what your surgery should be like, and we will be able to prepare an estimate for you. To be able to have an accurate quotation, it is necessary to schedule an initial appointment so that the doctors can make a precise diagnosis and treatment.
