Wisdom teeth, also popularly known as wisdom teeth, are molars that usually erupt between the ages of 17-25. These teeth, located at the back of the jaw, cause various problems because they cannot adapt to the jaw structure.
Wisdom teeth often cause pain, abscesses and various dental diseases because they cannot adapt to the jaw structure. In these cases, wisdom teeth may need to be removed by tooth extraction or dental surgery. However, these teeth do not need to be extracted in individuals with a suitable jaw structure.
In some cases, wisdom teeth may erupt at the wrong angle due to improper jaw structure and remain embedded in the gums. Impacted wisdom teeth may not be noticeable when viewed from the outside and are usually characterized by pain.
Thanks to regular dental check-ups, the eruption and development of wisdom teeth can be monitored. The condition of the teeth is monitored to prevent any unfavorable situation and, if necessary, extraction is performed without damaging oral and dental health.
