What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the final set of teeth to develop, typically appearing between ages 17 and 25. While they may not cause problems for everyone, many individuals face discomfort, overcrowding, or impaction due to insufficient space in the jaw.

These teeth can grow at odd angles or remain trapped beneath the gums, leading to potential infections or damage to nearby teeth. When wisdom teeth cause problems, extraction is often the best solution to protect overall oral health.

Common Issues with Wisdom Teeth

Impaction

If wisdom teeth lack the necessary space to fully emerge, they may become impacted, causing discomfort, swelling, and an increased risk of infection.

Overcrowding

When wisdom teeth push through, they can lead to crowding, shifting nearby teeth out of place, and potentially reversing previous orthodontic treatments.

Decay and Gum Disease

Since wisdom teeth are positioned far back in the mouth, they can be difficult to clean properly, making them more prone to cavities and gum disease.

Signs You May Need Wisdom Teeth Removal

• Pain at the Back of the Mouth: Persistent discomfort can indicate impaction or infection.
• Swelling and Redness: Inflammation around the gums may signal issues with emerging teeth.
• Difficulty Opening Your Mouth: Limited jaw movement can be a symptom of impacted wisdom teeth.

Benefits of Early Removal

Removing wisdom teeth early can help prevent a range of dental issues, including pain, overcrowding, and potential damage to neighboring teeth. Early extraction also reduces the risk of infection, cyst formation, and gum disease, which can develop when wisdom teeth are left untreated. 

Additionally, younger patients typically experience faster healing and fewer complications compared to delayed removal in adulthood. By addressing wisdom teeth before they cause problems, you can maintain better oral health and avoid more complex dental procedures in the future.

The Extraction Procedure

Performed in our Charlotte, NC office, the procedure involves:

• Anesthesia Administration: Ensuring you are comfortable and pain-free.
• Tissue Incision: Gently accessing the tooth.
• Tooth Removal: Extracting the tooth with minimal impact on surrounding tissues.
