Wisdom teeth are the 8th tooth or the third molar, this tooth grows last and usually between the ages of 17 and 25. Even a few people grow wisdom teeth after the age of 30.
Most wisdom teeth grow crooked because at this time the jawbone has developed stably and has enough space for 28 teeth. Therefore, wisdom teeth will cause pain, aching and discomfort during the growth process. Not only that, wisdom teeth often grow in the same jaw, making them difficult to clean, prone to cavities and causing unpleasant odors.
Not only that, wisdom teeth often grow into adjacent teeth and cause inflammation of the pericoronal gingiva. From there, the patient will feel pain, stuck, difficulty chewing…
Therefore, early wisdom tooth extraction is extremely necessary to avoid uncomfortable pain, cavities, and inflammation of the surrounding gums. In particular, wisdom tooth extraction also avoids complications later.
WHEN SHOULD WISDOM TEETH BE EXTRACTED?
The best time to have wisdom teeth extracted is between the ages of 18 and 25, when the roots of the wisdom teeth are only half formed and have not yet deeply embedded in the jaw. Because the older you get, the more difficult it is to extract wisdom teeth because the bones are harder and denser, the healing process takes longer… Below are the cases where wisdom teeth should be extracted.
- Crooked or impacted teeth… cause complications of pain, repeated infections, cysts and affect adjacent teeth.
- In cases where there is a gap between the wisdom tooth and the adjacent tooth that can trap food, which can affect the adjacent tooth, wisdom tooth extraction is required to prevent complications.
- Wisdom teeth grow straight, have enough space, are not obstructed by bones and gums, but do not have opposing teeth that fit together, causing wisdom teeth to protrude down and cause ulcers on the opposite jaw gums.
- The shape of the wisdom tooth is abnormal, small, deformed, causing food to be stuffed with adjacent teeth, causing tooth decay and periodontitis in the adjacent teeth over time.
- The wisdom tooth itself has periodontal disease or cavities teeth spread.
