Are Your Wisdom Teeth Responsible For Your Dental Pain?
Most of our secondary (adult) teeth will arrive early in life, but wisdom teeth typically take longer to erupt. Unfortunately, when these teeth do start to move into position, there can be too little space for them. In this scenario, you can experience painful teeth crowding, damage to neighboring teeth, or issues with impacted wisdom teeth that arrive at an odd angle. Typically, wisdom teeth are extracted to prevent problems with their eruption.

To stay informed about their movement, attend regular dental exams, which will give us opportunities to study your smile and determine when your wisdom teeth need your dentist’s attention. (more…)
