What are Wisdom Teeth? 

Wisdom teeth are the third molars and final set of teeth you will develop in your life. Although the age in which most people get them varies, wisdom teeth most commonly erupt in the late teens and early twenties.

Why are Wisdom Teeth Removed?

Although not always necessary, there are several dental issues associated with wisdom teeth that call for their removal. Here are the most common:

Angle

Wisdom teeth often come at an angle that presses them against other molars. This not only prevents their growth but can also harm adjacent teeth.

Mouth Size

Some mouths are simply not big enough to accommodate another four molars. If the wisdom teeth are allowed to grow, they can cause crowding and make your teeth crooked. 

Decay

Once the wisdom teeth breakthrough, they are so far back that it’s difficult to reach them with a toothbrush. This makes them more likely to develop cavities and severe damage.
