Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the final adult teeth to emerge—typically in the late teens or early 20s. Most people have four wisdom teeth: one on each side of the upper and lower jaws.
Historically, these teeth helped our ancestors chew rough, fibrous foods. But today, thanks to softer diets and modern dental care, wisdom teeth often serve no functional purpose. And since they arrive last, many people don’t have enough space in their jaw for them to emerge properly.
The best way to identify if your wisdom teeth need removing is with the help of an experienced dentist. At Clarity Dental, we conduct thorough wisdom teeth assessments to help us understand cases where wisdom teeth are impacted or have the potential to become impacted. If so, it’s best to have them removed.
Below are some of the symptoms you may experience if your wisdom teeth become impacted:
- Swelling of gums around the wisdom tooth area
- Redness of gums around the wisdom tooth area
- Jaw pain or tenderness
- Frequent sore throats
- Bad breath
- Bad taste in your mouth
Our team provides comprehensive wisdom teeth assessments and will walk you through your options. If wisdom teeth extraction is recommended, we’ll explain the procedure clearly, answer your questions, and ensure you feel supported throughout.
Apart from the fact that impacted wisdom teeth will more than likely cause you pain and discomfort, they can also lead to serious oral health issues. Wisdom teeth that have only partially erupted are hard to clean and promote bacteria buildup under the gumline and between adjacent teeth.
Over time, this can lead to accelerated tooth decay and gum disease. It can also result in infection and swelling causing you discomfort and jaw stiffness. So, it’s important not to ignore them.
In some cases, an impacted wisdom tooth left unattended may have a cyst form around it. This can do extensive damage to the bone, teeth and gums surrounding it.
Every wisdom teeth case is different. Depending on your situation, we may recommend removal in our clinic under local anaesthesia or refer you to a specialist for surgical extraction under sedation.
We’ll guide you through:
- Digital X-rays to assess positioning
- A detailed explanation of your treatment options
- Clear pre- and post-care instructions
- Gentle, compassionate care during and after your procedure
