Why Do I Have Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth, or molars, were once helpful to people because they helped them to chew and break down tough food. Though modern humans don't need wisdom teeth anymore, they still grow and erupt. Some wisdom teeth are harmless, but others can cause issues like crooked teeth, misalignment, shifting, and pain. If yours are inhibiting your ability to eat or chew, or they are causing you discomfort and suffering, it is usually recommended to have them removed.

Why Do Wisdom Teeth Need Removal?

Wisdom teeth removal is a common dental procedure because, for many patients, there isn't enough space in their mouths. When a tooth attempts to erupt, it may instead become impacted, which can lead to a wide range of risks and complications, including pain, accelerated decay, and even cyst formation. Removal helps prevent these issues and ensures the rest of your teeth don't become crowded and crooked.

What Are the Signs That Wisdom Teeth Need Removal?

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often cause issues when they grow in, especially if there isn't enough space to accommodate them. Patients experiencing any of these issues should schedule an appointment to determine if wisdom tooth removal is necessary:

What Are the Risks and Complications?

Wisdom tooth removal is a safe and commonly performed dental procedure. However, there are some risks patients should be aware of, including the following:

  • Dry Socket
  • Potential Infection
  • Nerve Damage
  • Damage to Surrounding Teeth

These risks and complications typically affect a very small percentage of patients. During your consultation with our dentists, we'll take the time to address any concerns, ensuring you feel confident in your decision regarding your oral health.

What Are the Benefits of Removing Problematic Wisdom Teeth?

Removing impacted wisdom teeth provides several benefits for patients. Impacted wisdom teeth removal will alleviate pain, swelling, and pressure. You'll also help reduce the risk of infection and improve your overall oral health. Removing problematic wisdom teeth can prevent damage to neighboring teeth, such as decay or misalignment caused by overcrowding. It also makes it easier to maintain proper oral hygiene, as wisdom teeth are often difficult to clean thoroughly.
