The wisdom teeth professionals

We are a health team dedicated exclusively to the painless, efficient and safe wisdom teeth removal, dental emergency and tooth extraction in Melbourne and Tasmania.

Dr Pinho and associates have founded Wisdom Dental Emergency in Melbourne with the aim of providing affordable and safe oral surgery with the highest possible standard of dental care. The service takes phone calls 7 days a week and is in operation in several clinics around Melbourne and Tasmania. The patient is always booked for an initial consultation where either appropriate treatment is taken or a surgical appointment is arranged for a later date.

Wisdom Dental Emergency works in collaboration with general dentists, endodontists, periodontists, oral surgeon and oral maxillo facial surgeons in Melbourne and Tasmania.  Dr Pinho is the surgeon operator for the great majority of surgical extractions and surgical removal of wisdom teeth. Each case is individually assessed and referrals to see specialists such as an oral surgeon or an oral maxillo facial surgeon are discussed and offered where appropriate or requested.

Dr Paulo Pinho is a dental surgeon who has been performing oral surgery for the past ten years. After years working in hospital trauma centers in Latin America and The United States with oral surgeons and other specialists, he was invited to move to Australia. Since receiving his license to practice dentistry in Australia in 2005, Dr Pinho has limited his practice to dental emergency, tooth extraction and wisdom teeth removal surgery in several clinics across Melbourne and Tasmania. Dr Pinho worked as a part time dental officer at the oral surgery department of the Royal Dental Hospital in Melbourne for 4 years. In addition to performing oral surgery under Local Anaesthesia, Dr Pinho also operates on patients from all across Melbourne Victoria and Tasmania under General Anaesthesia at private hospitals and at The Royal Dental Hospital Melbourne.  The majority of procedures performed are tooth extraction, wisdom teeth removal surgery and full dental clearance for patients requiring dentures ( false teeth ).  Dr Pinho performs the great majority of surgical tooth extractions and wisdom teeth removal at Wisdom Dental Emergency.
