Wisdom teeth are the four back molars that typically emerge between the ages of 18 and 30. While they were once necessary, changing diets have made them less so. In some cases, wisdom teeth can cause issues such as pain, decay, or damage to surrounding teeth, particularly if they are impacted.
Not all wisdom teeth require removal, and the decision depends on individual circumstances. At Setai Dental, we provide professional care and guidance to help you manage your oral health, including wisdom teeth concerns.
Impacted wisdom teeth are those that grow improperly. They may grow sideways into the gum, potentially causing discomfort or affecting neighbouring teeth. In some cases, they may grow into the jawbone, which can lead to additional complications.
Wisdom teeth that are impacted can cause pain and other dental issues. In such cases, removal is often recommended. Removing impacted wisdom teeth typically involves oral surgery, as it is more complex than a standard tooth extraction.
It’s important to consult a dentist when you notice wisdom teeth starting to emerge. A dentist can assess whether they are impacted or growing properly and recommend the most appropriate course of action.
