Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last set of molars that usually emerge in late adolescence or early adulthood, between the ages of 17 to 25. These molars are located at the back of the mouth in the upper and lower jaws.
Most people have four wisdom teeth, but some may have fewer or none at all. Often, these teeth do not have enough space to emerge properly and can cause problems like pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. As a result, many dentists recommend removing them.
The extraction of wisdom teeth is a common dental procedure that involves the use of local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia to numb the affected area and minimize discomfort. Recovery time varies but typically takes several days.
It is important to monitor the development of wisdom teeth and consult with a dental professional if you experience any discomfort or signs of infection. Regular dental check-ups can also help detect potential problems early and prevent more serious complications.
