Wisdom teeth are usually the last molars to appear on each side of the jaws at the very back of your mouth, with most people having 4 wisdom teeth coming through in each corner. Some people may not have wisdom teeth appear at all, however most commonly they appear between the age of 14 and 30 and can cause problems for some due to jaws being too small and crowded to accommodate them.
Sometimes if there is not enough room for your wisdom teeth as they start to come through, they push against the teeth already there or they may start to come through at an angle. When this happens, you might feel some pain or discomfort, so the best thing to do is visit Puresmile Ealing Dental & Implants to discuss wisdom tooth extraction.
Your dentist will probably take an x-ray of your mouth to see how your wisdom teeth are coming through. From this, they will be able to make a judgement on whether or not to take them out, and how easy or difficult it might be. Our oral surgeon is gentle and diligent and particularly good with nervous patients. Extraction treatment is carried out under sedation.
If you are suffering with dental pain, always consult your dentist as it could be caused by many different problems.
