What should I do with my wisdom teeth?

Although the breaking out of wisdom teeth may not be a problem for some, there are still people who complain about feeling pain or discomfort when their wisdom teeth start breaking out.

Wisdom teeth usually come out when a person is between 17 to 25 years old. Since all of our teeth have broken out by this time, little room is left for wisdom teeth to go out. This sometimes results to either a partially impacted wisdom tooth or a completely impacted wisdom tooth. If this is the case for you, you will need to see an oral surgeon who can have your impacted tooth removed. This cannot wait because delay may cause cyst formation, which can lead to tumor growth. You don't want that!

So, if you want to save yourself from more pain and hassle, go to a clinic like Southpark Oral Surgery and have your teeth checked. Remember: prevention is better than cure!
