Wisdom Teeth Removal: When & Why
Wisdom Teeth and Their Removal
Wisdom teeth, are located at the back of the mouth and typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. These teeth were once essential for grinding tough foods but often become impacted when they don’t have enough space to grow.
When Should You Remove Wisdom Teeth?
There is no set age for wisdom tooth removal. However, removing them at a younger age can speed up recovery. If you experience discomfort or complications, it’s essential to consult your dentist for an evaluation, even in your 40s.
