Once used by our ancestors to chew tough plants and raw meat, wisdom teeth have lost their purpose in the course of human evolution. The narrowing of the jaw and the transformation of our eating habits have made wisdom teeth relics of the past, but they can still cause problems today.<\/p>\n

When and how to have wisdom teeth removed<\/h3>\n

Wisdom teeth are the third molars located at the back of the dental arch and are the last teeth to appear. They generally emerge around age 18, but can also grow in later. Their eruption can be painful, and can potentially lead to a variety of oral and maxillofacial pathologies<\/a>, especially if they lack space or are misaligned. In these cases, where they remain completely or partially covered by the gums and jawbone, there is a greater risk of developing a number of issues. Wisdom tooth removal will be necessary to contain the problem and prevent more serious oral diseases.<\/p>\n

In fact, some wisdom teeth grow in without any problems affecting the jaw or adjacent teeth. However, they still often need special attention: their position at the back of the jaw makes cleaning more difficult, and poor oral hygiene can lead to tooth decay and infection.<\/p>\n

When wisdom teeth removal is necessary<\/h3>\n

Wisdom teeth are more likely to cause complications and require extraction when they are impacted or semi-impacted, in other words, completely or partially under the gums.<\/p>\n

When they are semi-impacted (only part of the tooth manages to pierce the gums) the risk of infection from bacteria and food deposits increases significantly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1694463909206{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
