What Are Wisdom Tooth Extractions? & Who Needs Them?

Wisdom teeth are the final set of molars, often emerging in your late teens or early twenties.


They may need to be removed if they:

  • Are impacted or stuck under the gum

  • Grow sideways or at an angle

  • Push against neighbouring teeth

  • Cause pain, swelling, or jaw stiffness

  • Lead to recurring infections or gum problems

We’ll begin with a full exam and X-ray to assess whether removal is needed.
