All you need to know about wisdom teeth


Wisdom teeth are found at the very back of the mouth and they have been called the most notorious teeth. A lot of people face difficulties with their wisdom teeth and most of them get them removed in order to get some relief. They are called wisdom teeth because they appear in between the age of 17 and 21-when a person is considered old enough to have gained some wisdom.

Experts from Chisel Dental Clinic say that the wisdom teeth that are in a good physical shape and are in the correct position usually don't cause any sort of problems. However, if these wisdom teeth have grown out to be in a tilted position then they may cause a lot of pain and trouble. You may experience a problem if any of the following symptoms occur:

Your wisdom teeth come out of your gums in such a way that a flap of gum tissue grows over them. This flap can lead to a hollow surface in which food particles might get trapped and cause a serious gum infection.
·        
      In case your wisdom teeth come in a crooked shape then also they can cause a great deal of irritation by bothering the inner lining of your mouth. In such cases, the dentists advise the patients to get them removed.
·         
      Another common situation is that a lot of people’s jaws are not large enough to give space to wisdom teeth that are slightly bigger in shape and size. In such a situation these teeth often lead to cuts and bruises in the inner lining of the mouth.

If your wisdom teeth are triggering difficulties then you possibly will have symptoms like pain or jaw stiffness near the affected area. Maximum problems with wisdom teeth disturb people between the ages of 17-25 and if the problem is beyond control then that requires the removal of wisdom teeth.
