DENTAL EXTRACTIONS

Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to grow in. They generally appear between the ages of 17 and 21. They are the third molars and are located at the very back of your dental arch. They are often extracted, as they can cause a number of dental problems.

Due to insufficient space in your jaw, wisdom teeth can remain partially or completely impacted. Partially impacted wisdom teeth are inaccessible to cleaning, so they can decay, produce gum problems and affect neighboring teeth. When they are completely embedded in the bone, there is a risk of developing tumors around them. Wisdom teeth extraction is the only way to avoid these complications.
