Not all Wisdom Teeth require extraction. When they align properly and gum tissue is healthy, wisdom teeth do not have to be removed. Unfortunately, this is a rare occurrence.
The extraction of Wisdom Teeth is necessary when they are prevented from properly erupting (coming through the gums) within the mouth. They may grow sideways, partially emerge from the gum, and even remain trapped beneath the gum and bone.
Poorly positioned impacted Wisdom Teeth can cause many problems. When they are partially erupted, the opening around the teeth allows bacteria to grow and will eventually cause an infection. The pressure from the erupting wisdom teeth may move other teeth and disrupt the orthodontic or natural alignment of teeth.
At AXIS Dental Group your Dental Professional will complete a thorough oral exam and take x-rays before offering treatment options. If extraction is recommended, the surgery will be performed under appropriate anesthesia to maximize your comfort.
