Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, typically emerge in the late teens or early twenties. While some people have no issues, many experience pain, crowding, infection, or impacted wisdom teeth that require removal.

Wisdom teeth often cause problems due to lack of space in the mouth, leading to:
⚠ Pain or discomfort in the back of the mouth
⚠ Swelling or infection around the gums
⚠ Crowding or shifting of other teeth
⚠ Cysts or damage to nearby teeth
⚠ Difficulty cleaning, leading to decay or gum disease
