Wisdom Teeth

What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Third molars are commonly referred to as wisdom teeth. They are usually the last teeth to develop and are located in the back of your mouth, behind your second molars. Their development is usually completed between the middle teenage years and early twenties, a time traditionally associated with the onset of maturity and the attainment of wisdom.

Call Charlottesville Office Phone Number 434-973-3348 to schedule your wisdom teeth consultation.

Dr. Tricker and his team have now taken care of both of our children and wisdom teeth removal and he and his team are amazing, professional, extremely kind and caring. I would give them 10 stars out of 5 if I could. Simply exceptional care. Cannot recommend them highly enough. So grateful.

Dr. Conner did a superb job in removing two of my wisdom teeth . . .no swelling . . .very little discomfort. I was amazed at how well I felt on Day 2 forward. Dr. Conner explained exactly what he was going to do and then executed in a superb manner. I would highly recommend other individuals use this practice (and Dr. Conner) for wisdom teeth extraction. The information sheets that they provided also were "spot on" for "post-surgery do's and don'ts . .and their recommended list of foods that one can eat. They also told me exactly what the procedure was to cost following my initial visit.

The whole process from walking in the door for the first time until leaving after my procedure(wisdom teeth) was EXCEPTIONAL, Dr. Solomon is very professional and to the point, I knew exactly what was going to happen before and during my procedure and the whole staff treated me like they had known me for years. Dr. Solomon even took time for a follow-up call that afternoon to make sure everything was good. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

The Best of the best and simply put and I couldn't have a better experience or found a better facility for my procedure. From day one, Dr. Tricker and his staff took the time to explain every detail and didn't rush to get me out the door like other medical facilities I've experienced over the years. I've never had an 'actual' doctor call to follow-up with me after surgery but that is the level of care Dr. Tricker provides and it really shows his dedication (and his staff's dedication) to his patients. I would absolutely recommend the clinic/facility to anyone in need of the services they provide, and would definitely not hesitate to return there should I need any work done in the future. There are very few places operating on this level these days and it's more than refreshing to have them in beautiful Charlottesville!

We were greeted on time in the parking lot by the nurse (due to COVID screening). They were very welcoming on both of our appointments. When we arrived for the wisdom tooth removal procedure my daughter was very anxious. Our nurse, Katie, was absolutely amazing! She put her at ease and had her laughing before they began the procedure. After the procedure was over and she was coming out of the anesthesia she specifically said she wanted to see Katie before we left. That speaks volumes about the impact Katie had on her. Thank you to Katie and Dr. Conner and everyone else at Central Virginia Oral & Facial Surgeons for making this a great experience!
