Impacted Wisdom Teeth: When Should They Be Removed?
Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the last teeth to emerge, usually between the ages of 17 and 25. Because modern human jaws are often too small to accommodate them comfortably, wisdom teeth frequently grow sideways, get trapped beneath the gums (impacted), or damage adjacent healthy teeth.
At AEG Dental Clinic, we utilize advanced 3D CBCT imaging to evaluate the exact root positioning near your nerves, making extraction smooth, predictable, and stress-free.
Key Signs You Need Your Wisdom Teeth Extracted:
- Crowding and Misalignment: Horizontal growth pushes against neighboring teeth, compromising your bite and undoing previous orthodontic work.
- Pericoronitis & Gum Infection: Partially erupted teeth create food traps beneath the gum flap, leading to painful infections and bad breath.
- Unexplained Jaw Pain or Cysts: Trapped teeth can form fluid-filled sacs (cysts) that weaken the jawbone structure.
