Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Why Do Wisdom Teeth Need to Be Removed?
Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars to emerge, typically between ages 17 and 25. In many cases, they don’t have enough space to grow properly, leading to:
- Pain & Discomfort – Crowding and pressure on surrounding teeth
- Impacted Teeth – Stuck under the gums, causing infection and swelling
- Infections & Gum Disease – Due to difficulty cleaning the area
- Cysts & Damage to Other Teeth – Leading to jawbone issues
- Tooth Decay – Increased risk of cavities from trapped food and bacteria
If you’re experiencing wisdom tooth pain, book a consultation for a professional assessment.
