Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically emerge between the ages of 16 and 25. In many cases, there is not enough space in the jaw for proper eruption, which can lead to impaction, infection, or damage to surrounding teeth.
These teeth often cause complications because they are commonly impacted, meaning they do not have enough space to erupt properly, are crooked, or only partially emerge. Such conditions can lead to gum disease, cysts, and damage to adjacent teeth.
Removing impacted wisdom teeth is often recommended to prevent these issues. However, not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. Evaluation by a dentist or oral surgeon, typically between ages 16 and 19, helps determine if removal is necessary.
