Wisdom Teeth Removal Perth
Wisdom teeth are the last or third molar in your mouth and generally develop between the ages of 16 and 26. Although extraction may not be necessary for all cases, choosing to keep your wisdom teeth can lead to various problems including pain, infection, periodontal disease and cysts. For these reasons, your dentist may advise you to remove your wisdom teeth. You may require removal for a variety of reasons, including:
- Your wisdom teeth are impacting your other teeth
- They’re causing pain or discomfort
- They’re crowding your other teeth
- They’re hard to clean and are causing decay or infection
- They’re impacting your jaw
- They haven’t emerged fully from your gums
- In preparation for orthognathic surgery
