Wisdom Teeth Removal

When Is Wisdom Teeth Removal Necessary?
Wisdom teeth also known as the third molars are usually the last of your adult teeth to come in. They are usually positioned at the back of the mouth.

Wisdom teeth normally come out between the ages of 17 and 20.

Most people don't really worry about their wisdom teeth unless they actually start to bother them.

Some wisdom teeth may not need to be removed if they are healthy and grow in completely.

However, in many cases, wisdom teeth do not have the space they need to come out naturally and can cause complications.

If the third molar is coming in at a bad angle it can push on your other teeth and cause damage.

whenever the wisdom teeth remain unmerged or trapped under the gums they are considered to be an impacted wisdom tooth.

Impacted wisdom teeth can cause an infection, discomfort.

You may also develop a cyst that can also hurt the root of your other teeth.

Sometimes the wisdom teeth will partially emerge through the gums.

The area would be very difficult to keep clean and will become a breeding ground for bacteria. This would be will be very bad for your oral health.

The American Dental Association deems wisdom tooth extraction necessary if you experience any of the following conditions:
Pain

Tumors
Damage to nearby teeth
Gum disease
