Keeping Your Smile Healthy for the Years to Come
Your third molars, also commonly known as wisdom teeth, are the last teeth to erupt. These tend to appear around the ages of 17 to 25. Since they are the last teeth to come in, sometimes your wisdom teeth do not have enough room to grow, increasing the chances of infection, pain and other serious dental conditions. But, through wisdom teeth removal, we can help you prevent complications such as:
- Damage to your jawbone or neighboring teeth
- Severe tooth decay
- Developing cysts or an infection
- Inflammation
- Difficulties when undergoing orthodontic treatment
