“A man begins cutting his wisdom teeth the first time he bites off more than he can chew.” - Herb Caen
Wisdom teeth are third or final set of molars which one might get in their late teens or early twenties. Healthy and properly aligned wisdom teeth proves to be a valuable asset to the mouth. But, if it is misaligned, then it requires removal. Poorly aligned wisdom teeth can crowd and damage the neighbouring teeth, jawbone, or nerves. Partially erupted or partially grown wisdom teeth harbours bacteria and cause infection leading to swelling, pain and general illness. This is because, the wisdom teeth are at the back and brushing and flossing becomes difficult.
Wisdom Teeth Removal Ease or complication of wisdom teeth removal depends on the position of the teeth. If a wisdom tooth has fully erupted through the gum that it can be easily extracted as other tooth. But, if the wisdom tooth is underneath the gums, then it requires an incision. The surrounding tissue will be numbed prior to tooth removal.
