Wisdom Teeth
Your wisdom teeth can effect many things. By removing your wisdom teeth you can not
only eliminate existing symptoms, but protect your mouth from future problems.
|
|
Primary
reasons why you should have your Wisdom Teeth removed |
Wisdom teeth can be hard to clean and are more prone to decay.
Bacteria can infect the tissue surrounding partially erupted molars
and can cause gum disease.
Crowding can damage adjacent teeth and jawbone.
If teeth are impacted, cysts can form and destroy surrounding bone.
