How To Treat Impacted Wisdom Teeth

It happens to most of us in adulthood: our wisdom teeth come in and wind up causing us pain. If your wisdom teeth don't come out all the way because there isn't enough space in your mouth, they can get trapped between your other molars and jawbone, leading to wisdom tooth impaction. Wisdom teeth typically appear between seventeen and twenty-five, and most adults have four wisdom teeth, which usually affect the positioning of other teeth as they emerge. Impacted wisdom teeth are painful and can cause infection as well as bone loss and other complications, so surgical extraction is typically the recommended treatment.
