THIRD MOLAR EXTRACTIONS

ABOUT THIRD MOLAR EXTRACTIONS

Also known as wisdom tooth extractions, are a common oral surgery procedure that involves removing one or more of the third molars at the back of the mouth.

These teeth typically emerge during early adulthood and can cause a range of oral health problems, including pain, infection, and overcrowding.

REASONS FOR THIRD MOLAR EXTRACTIONS

One of the primary reasons for third molar extractions is the risk of impaction. When the wisdom teeth do not fully emerge from the gum line, they can become impacted, which can lead to pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth.

In some cases, impacted wisdom teeth may need to be removed to prevent further complications. Another reason for third molar extractions is overcrowding.

When there is not enough room in the mouth for the wisdom teeth to emerge properly, they can push against adjacent teeth, causing discomfort, misalignment, and other oral health problems.
