Do I need to get my wisdom tooth removed?

28th October 2017

blog inner thumb : The Edge dental

Humans no longer need wisdom teeth, so when they emerge, they can be removed if they are causing problems.

Key takeaways:
– Wisdom teeth are prone to infection and can become painfully impacted – symptoms include redness, pain, swelling, a bad taste or increased frequency of headaches.
– If you’re lucky enough to have wisdom teeth that don’t cause any problems, you probably won’t need to get them removed.
– Your dentist can X-ray your jaw and discuss the best wisdom tooth options for you.

“Many people still have wisdom teeth even though they’re not needed.”
