Wisdom Teeth Removal in Waterdown

Waterdown Village Dentistry strives to provide you with gentle care at our warm and friendly dental office.

Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to come in and the ones least needed for good oral health. The third molars, or wisdom teeth, are called such because they develop when most individuals become young adults.

Wisdom tooth removal is generally required when it starts to cause a problem within the mouth. The most common issues that occur when a wisdom tooth grows in are that it begins to crowd your mouth or creates an opening in your gums – where bacteria can cause infections.

Wisdom teeth can cause the following problems within the mouth:

• Infection in the gums
• Decayed wisdom teeth
• Tooth crowding and displacement
• Poorly positioned wisdom teeth

It is often recommended that the individual have their wisdom teeth removed when they first develop, rather than later. During this period, the roots of the tooth are not fully developed, which makes it easier to remove and provides a better recovery period.
