Gentle Wisdom Teeth Removal in Newark
John Fontana, John B. Fontana Jr DDS has been serving the Newark area for several years and is highly trained in the many skills of dentistry. Treatment of wisdom teeth related problems is no exception. Doctor Fontana will quickly and thoroughly diagnose your wisdom tooth pain and start you on the path towards treatment.
Wisdom teeth, similar to the human appendix, are what is called "vestigial" meaning that they do not serve a practical purpose in the human body. In fact, rather than occupying any essential role in oral health, they oftentimes just get in the way. At John B. Fontana Jr DDS in Newark we know that patients who have had orthodontic work done often find that their newly arriving wisdom teeth are interfering with the proper alignment of their other teeth. Sometimes, other more serious complications such as infection and nerve damage may also occur.
John Fontana
Whether you are already experiencing wisdom teeth pain or just want to take preventative measures, John B. Fontana Jr DDS will be able to provide you with some of Newark's most effective care. Don't let wisdom teeth problems get in the way of having great overall oral health.
