Wisdom tooth removal is a dental procedure that involves the surgical extraction of the third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth. These teeth are located at the back of the mouth and usually emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. However, due to limited space in the jaw, wisdom teeth often don't fully erupt or grow in misaligned positions, causing various issues.

Impacted Teeth: Wisdom teeth often don't have enough space to properly emerge, causing them to become impacted.Impacted teeth can cause discomfort, infection, and swelling.

Crowding: If your jaw doesn't have enough space to accommodate the wisdom teeth, they can cause overcrowding and misalignment of other teeth.

Tooth Decay and Gum Disease: Wisdom teeth are challenging to clean properly because of their position at the back of the mouth. This can increase the risk of tooth decay and gum disease in both the wisdom teeth and the surrounding teeth.

Damage to Adjacent Teeth: Wisdom teeth can exert pressure on neighbouring teeth, leading to damage, such as tooth displacement or resorption.

Cysts and Tumours: In some cases, a sac called a cyst can form around an impacted wisdom tooth. This cyst can cause damage to the surrounding bone and teeth. Rarely, tumours may also develop near impacted wisdom teeth.
