Wisdom Teeth

What are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars or “”tooth 8,”” are the last teeth to emerge, typically appearing between the ages of 17 and 25. If these teeth grow misaligned or remain impacted under the gums, they can cause pain and may affect nearby teeth, leading to oral health complications if not treated promptly.

Cases Where Wisdom Teeth Should Be Extracted

Misaligned wisdom teeth pressing on adjacent teeth: Causes pain and can damage nearby teeth.

Impacted wisdom teeth under the gums: Can lead to swelling, infections, or cysts in the jawbone.

Straight but difficult-to-clean wisdom teeth: Being located far back in the mouth makes them prone to decay and gum inflammation.

Crowding caused by wisdom teeth: Eruption of wisdom teeth can push other teeth out of alignment, causing bite issues.

For orthodontic or restorative treatment: Extraction may be necessary to align the bite or place prosthetics, or if wisdom teeth negatively impact general health.
