Wisdom teeth extraction is a dental procedure used to remove one or more wisdom teeth when they are causing problems or are likely to create future dental issues. Wisdom teeth are the last molars to develop and usually appear during the late teenage years or early adulthood. If there is not enough space for them to grow properly, they may become impacted or grow at an unusual angle. Depending on the position of the tooth, extraction may be straightforward or may require a surgical approach.

Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed. Your dentist may recommend extraction if a wisdom tooth is causing:

• Ongoing tooth or jaw pain

• Swelling around the tooth

• Repeated gum infections

• Difficulty cleaning the area

• Tooth decay

• Damage to nearby teeth

• Cysts or other dental problems

• An impacted or incorrectly positioned tooth

A dental examination and appropriate imaging can help determine whether removal is necessary.
