Some dentists advise extracting wisdom teeth that fail to emerge fully. Often, removing wisdom teeth during young adulthood, typically between 15 to 22 years old, proves safer, simpler, and involves swifter recovery compared to extraction later in life. This is due to less developed roots, less dense jaw bone, and faster post-surgery recovery. Hence, many young adults preemptively opt for wisdom teeth removal to avoid future complications.
According to the American Dental Association, indications for wisdom teeth extraction include:
Eruption of wisdom teeth can lead to tender, swollen gums, hindering proper cleaning during brushing.
Alongside inflammation, bleeding gums during brushing can indicate the emergence of wisdom teeth.
Prolonged neglect of wisdom teeth can prompt cyst formation, potentially damaging the mouth and jaw.
Improperly emerging wisdom teeth can alter the bite, causing pain and stiffness in the jaw.
This common symptom suggests emerging or problematic wisdom teeth, with pain varying from intermittent to persistent.
Growing wisdom teeth can exert pressure on the sinuses, leading to sinus pain, headaches, and congestion.
Wisdom teeth-related discomfort may extend beyond the mouth, causing pain in adjacent areas such as the ears or head.
Despite space constraints, wisdom teeth continue growing, potentially causing overcrowding and crooked teeth. Extraction becomes necessary to alleviate this issue.
Dentists typically conduct X-rays to assess potential overcrowding before wisdom teeth fully emerge. Seeking timely evaluation and, if necessary, extraction can prevent complications such as the need for braces due to tooth misalignment.
