When wisdom teeth cause problems, or when X-rays show problems that may be below the gum line, they need to be extracted. Other good reasons to remove wisdom teeth from the mouth include:
Inflamed Gums: The tissue around the area may swell and be difficult to clean.
Cavities: Swollen gums can form pockets between teeth that help bacteria grow and cavities form.
Alignment: Impacted wisdom teeth can pull down the effects of braces, bridges, crowns, partial dentures, or any dental work.
Sinus Problems: Problems with wisdom teeth can cause sinus pain, pressure, and congestion.
Damage to other teeth: These extra molars can push your other teeth around, causing mouth pain and biting problems.
