Why Remove Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt within the mouth. When they align properly and gum tissue is healthy, wisdom teeth do not have to be removed. Unfortunately, this does not generally happen. The extraction of wisdom teeth is necessary when they are prevented from properly erupting within the mouth.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth
They may grow sideways, partially emerge from the gum, and even remain trapped beneath the gum and bone. Impacted teeth can take many positions in the bone as they attempt to find a pathway that will allow them to erupt successfully. These poorly positioned impacted teeth can cause many problems including infection, damage to adjacent teeth, and cyst formation.
Key Takeaway
"Early evaluation and treatment result in a superior outcome for the patient. Patients are generally evaluated in the mid-teenage years by their dentist, orthodontist or by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon."
