Why Wisdom Teeth Causes Problems
Many people have wisdom teeth that never fully erupt through the gums. Studies show that a large percentage of young adults have at least one impacted wisdom tooth. This often occurs because there is not enough space in the jaw for these teeth to grow normally.
Push against neighboring teeth
Cause gum inflammation or infection
Create areas that are difficult to clean
Lead to cavities or decay in nearby teeth
Even when wisdom teeth partially erupt, food and bacteria can easily get trapped around them, increasing the risk of infection and gum disease.
