Wisdom teeth can be the source of many dental complications.
Wisdom teeth can cause crowding of the front teeth or damage the adjacent molars, jawbone, or nerves. Wisdom teeth that are positioned horizontally toward the second molars can often lead to cavity development by making them impossible to clean.
When wisdom teeth are impacted inside the gums and/or jawbone, they present a host of complications including infection, pain, swelling, jaw stiffness, and general illness. On occasion, a patient will have sufficient space in their mouth to accommodate wisdom teeth, however it’s quite common for them to be preventively removed.
