What Are Wisdom Teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the final set of molars that usually come in during the late teens or early twenties. For some people, wisdom teeth grow in without problems. However, for many others, these teeth can cause pain, infection, or damage to nearby teeth.
When Do Wisdom Teeth Need Treatment?
Wisdom teeth may need treatment if they:
- Are impacted (don’t fully emerge from the gums).
- Cause pain or swelling.
- Push against other teeth, causing misalignment.
- Are at risk of causing infection or cavities.
