Also known as your third molars, these teeth often require removal due to various potential issues that can arise as they emerge. However, there are circumstances where it may be acceptable to leave them in place. Here’s an overview:
- Impaction: Wisdom teeth often don’t have enough space to emerge properly. This can lead to impaction, where the teeth are unable to grow in fully or in the right position. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to neighboring teeth.
- Overcrowding: The emergence of wisdom teeth can lead to overcrowding in the mouth, which can affect the alignment of your existing teeth and create bite problems.
- Infection and Gum Disease: Located at the back of the mouth, these teeth are harder to clean. This can lead to an increased risk of infection, gum disease, and cavities in these areas.
- Pain and Discomfort: Wisdom teeth can cause significant pain and discomfort, especially when they become impacted or cause pressure on surrounding tissues.
