Impacted wisdom teeth can be a pain in the neck, sorry, jaw. While not everyone will experience wisdom teeth pain, one in four people will experience wisdom teeth pain as a result of impacted wisdom teeth or wisdom teeth exerting pressure on the adjacent teeth.
In such situations, wisdom teeth may have to be extracted to help relieve the pain. Because of the risks involved in any type of surgery, it is important to note that before any dental surgical procedure, you have to consult with a medical professional to find out if you are eligible.
Wisdom teeth are third molars, the last set of teeth to erupt in the human oral cavity and usually erupt between late teens and early twenties. While not everyone will experience problems with their wisdom teeth, wisdom teeth extraction is rapidly becoming quite common. A dentist may recommend that your wisdom teeth be removed if:
1. They are impacted. Wisdom teeth are said to be impacted if they erupt either diagonally or horizontally and cause pressure on the adjacent teeth resulting in severe pain and discomfort.
2. They cause crowding and misalignment. Since wisdom teeth erupt way later after other teeth have all erupted, they may cause shifts in the alignment of your teeth and cause crowding. For this reason, our dentist may recommend having them extracted to correct the alignment.
3. They are too far back, and cleaning becomes a problem. Some wisdom teeth erupt too far back at the back, or your mouth and cleaning can become a problem and result in tooth decay or other infections. Therefore, your dentist may recommend that the teeth be extracted.
