The third molars, commonly called wisdom teeth, are typically the last teeth to come in. Because they are the last to erupt, there is often not enough room for them to grow in as they should.
When there is not sufficient space, wisdom teeth may become impacted, meaning they are unable to fully break through the gum tissue and jawbone, or they may grow in at an incorrect angle.
Wisdom teeth that do not erupt as they should, can lead to several dental problems, such as:
Disturbance Of The Natural Tooth Alignment Or Orthodontic Treatment
Damage To The Neighboring Teeth
If Tooth is Decaying
Infection And Inflammation In The Gums And Other Tissues
The Formation Of Cysts
Damage To The Jawbone
