Wisdom Teeth

ShapeUnderstanding Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of molars located at the back of the mouth. They typically emerge in late adolescence or early adulthood. Some people may experience complications with their wisdom teeth, leading to the need for extraction.

Issues: Problems That May Arise

  • Impaction: Wisdom teeth may become trapped in the jawbone or under the gums, causing pain, swelling, and infection.
  • Crowding: If there isn’t enough space in the mouth, wisdom teeth can push against adjacent teeth, leading to misalignment and overcrowding.
  • Infection: Partially erupted wisdom teeth can create pockets where bacteria can grow, leading to infections or gum disease.
  • Decay: Hard-to-reach locations of wisdom teeth can make them more susceptible to cavities and decay.

Symptoms: Signs to Look For

  • Pain: Persistent pain or discomfort in the back of the mouth.
  • Swelling: Swelling around the gums or jaw, which may be a sign of infection or impaction.
  • Redness or Bleeding: Inflamed or bleeding gums around the wisdom teeth.
  • Difficulty Opening Mouth: Pain or stiffness when trying to open your mouth fully.
  • Bad Breath: Foul-smelling breath due to infection or decay.

Treatment

  • Dental Examination: Your dentist will examine your mouth and may use X-rays to assess the position of your wisdom teeth and determine the best course of action.
  • Extraction: If wisdom teeth are causing problems, extraction may be recommended to prevent further complications.
  • Medication: Pain relievers or antibiotics may be prescribed to manage pain and infection.
  • Monitoring: In some cases, wisdom teeth may be monitored over time if they are not causing any immediate problems.
