Maintaining a healthy mouth goes beyond daily brushing and flossing—it also involves addressing dental developments like wisdom teeth. Also called third molars, these teeth can lead to pain and complications if they’re not treated in time. At Transcend Implant, we specialize in the safe removal of wisdom teeth, helping patients preserve their long-term oral health.
Wisdom teeth usually emerge in early adulthood, typically around the late teens to twenties. While some people experience no issues, others may find these molars become problematic—either growing at odd angles, getting stuck (impacted), or putting pressure on surrounding teeth due to lack of space in the mouth.
You might need to consider wisdom tooth extraction if you’re experiencing pain, jaw discomfort, gum swelling, cavities in hard-to-reach areas, or infections. Even without symptoms, a dental exam can uncover hidden risks. Regular visits to your oral surgeon can catch these concerns early before they worsen.
Getting your wisdom teeth removed can do more than eliminate pain—it can stop future dental problems before they start. Here are several benefits of timely removal:
At Transcend Implant, our skilled oral surgeons use advanced tools and gentle techniques to perform wisdom teeth extractions with minimal discomfort. We take a patient-first approach—tailoring each treatment to your specific needs while prioritizing safety and comfort.
Maintaining excellent oral health requires a blend of personal care and professional support. By brushing, flossing, and scheduling regular visits with our experts, you can stay ahead of issues like impacted wisdom teeth.

Dental implants offer a lasting, stable solution that supports jawbone health and restores complete oral function. If you're exploring dental implant options, contact Transcend Implant—our team is here to support you every step of the way.
The cost of a dental implant can vary based on your specific needs. Factors like the number of implants, necessary preparatory procedures (such as bone grafting), and the type of restoration used all influence the final price. To get an accurate estimate tailored to your situation, it's best to schedule a consultation with a qualified dental implant specialist.
Dental implants act as artificial roots, surgically inserted into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. Through a natural process called osseointegration, the implant fuses with the bone over time. After healing, a realistic restoration—such as a crown, bridge, or denture—is securely placed on the implant, restoring both appearance and function.
Caring for dental implants is much like caring for your natural teeth. Consistent oral hygiene practices—like daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits—are essential for keeping implants in top condition. To help extend their lifespan, it's also important to avoid harmful habits such as grinding your teeth or using them to open objects.
Losing a tooth affects more than just your smile—it can make eating difficult and limit your ability to maintain a nutritious diet. Over time, adjacent teeth may shift, causing bite issues and discomfort. Missing teeth can also lead to jawbone deterioration, which may impact facial structure and compromise overall oral health.
Ideal candidates for dental implants are those in good overall health with healthy gums and adequate jawbone density to support the implant. Individuals who avoid smoking or tobacco use typically experience better healing outcomes. A comprehensive evaluation by a dental implant specialist is essential to determine if implant treatment is the right choice.
Dental implants offer a long-lasting solution for tooth replacement, with the implant post itself often lasting a lifetime when properly maintained. The visible restoration, such as a crown, may require replacement after 10 to 15 years due to normal wear. Factors like daily oral hygiene, lifestyle choices, overall health, and routine dental checkups all influence the longevity of an implant. To maximize results, it's essential to follow good oral care practices and consult with an implant specialist for personalized advice.
Coverage for dental implants varies depending on your individual insurance plan. Some policies may provide partial benefits, while others may exclude implant procedures or impose specific restrictions. In certain situations, insurance may only apply if the treatment is considered medically necessary. To determine your coverage, it's best to review your policy details or contact your insurance provider directly.
