WISDOM TEETH

Wisdom teeth usually do not push through the gums until people are in their late teens, twenties or even older. Wisdom teeth are usually the last teeth to come through the gums.

If the jaw does not have enough room for the wisdom teeth to come through, the teeth will become impacted.

Often one or more wisdom teeth will cause problems and must be removed. If your wisdom teeth start to cause you problems, your dentist may recommend that it be removed.

Troublesome wisdom teeth should usually be removed as soon as possible before they become a problem at an inconvenient time.

Wisdom teeth can be removed under Local Anaesthetic in the chair at our clinic.
