Wisdom teeth are the third molars, which usually come in during the late teens or early twenties. Many people don't have enough room for them, so they become impacted, only partly erupt, or come in at an angle.
Your dentist evaluates the position of your wisdom teeth with X-rays or 3D imaging. The teeth are removed under local anesthetic, often with sedation for comfort, and teeth that haven't fully come in may be removed in sections through a small opening in the gum.
Removing problematic wisdom teeth helps prevent painful infections, cysts, and damage to the neighboring molars. Many dentists recommend an evaluation in the teen years, when roots are less developed and recovery tends to be easier.
