What are Wisdom Teeth?
Important
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of teeth to emerge in the back of your mouth. While not everyone experiences problems with them, many individuals face issues such as pain, crowding, and infection, making extraction necessary. Typically, wisdom teeth start to appear between the ages of 17 and 25, and in many cases, removal is recommended to avoid complications.
Symptoms Indicating Removal is Necessary
Some signs that your wisdom teeth may need to be removed include:
Persistent pain or discomfort in the back of your mouth
Swollen or bleeding gums
Difficulty opening your mouth
Crowding or shifting of other teeth
Recurring infections or cysts”
When is the Best Time to Remove Them?
Early removal is often recommended to prevent issues before they occur. Many dentists suggest that wisdom teeth be removed between the ages of 17 and 25 when the roots are not fully formed, making extraction easier and recovery faster. Waiting until later in life can increase the risk of complications such as nerve damage or prolonged healing.
