Why remove the wisdom teeth?

There are several reasons a dentist may need to remove the wisdom teeth:

  • Impaction – the most common reason is impaction. When the wisdom teeth do not have enough space to erupt through the gum line, they become “stuck” in the bone and can be extremely painful. Extraction of the wisdom teeth may be needed at this point to relieve patients of pain.
  • Disease – because wisdom teeth are far back in the mouth, they can be difficult to floss and brush. They are more susceptible to disease and cavities, making them a risk for one’s oral health. Extraction may be needed to keep the smile at its healthiest.
  • Orthodontics – patients who have had orthodontic work but have not had their wisdom teeth erupt may choose to have them extracted to eliminate the chance of affecting their new alignment.
