Why Are Wisdom Teeth Removed -
Wisdom teeth are third molars that appear at last in the mouth. Mostly wisdom teeth appear between the ages of 16 and 25. It’s not like everyone will develop wisdom teeth. Some people don’t. For some, it normally develops just like their other molars without causing any problems. But many develop impacted wisdom teeth when there is not enough room to develop normally. Impacted wisdom teeth can develop only partially or not at all. These can grow at an unnatural angle either towards the front molar or towards the back of the mouth or even stay trapped within the jawbone. Impacted wisdom teeth can and will cause you problems like :
#pain
#gum disease
# damage to surrounding bone or tooth
# infection resulting in developing a cyst around it.
# complications in other dental treatments
# tooth decay
# Bad breath

There is a rationale reason behind wisdom teeth preventive extraction:
Wisdom teeth could harbor disease in the future even if it is symptom-free now because it develops in the back of the mouth where there is not enough space and it is hard to reach and clean properly. And most of the time, serious problems with wisdom teeth arise in older age and not in younger adults leading to difficulty and complications before and after surgery.
If you leave it for later, then risk also increases - extracting it when there are no problems results in no long-term complications but extracting impacted wisdom teeth sometimes requires surgery in which doctors may have to make an incision in the gum and remove the bone. Some of the complications that can arise are painful dry socket, infection due to trapped food particles or bacteria in the socket, damage to nerves or jawbone.
Call your dentist after extraction. If you feel difficulty in breathing or swallowing, bleeding excessively, medication is not helping in relieving severe pain, loss of feeling, fever, pus in the socket because these symptoms indicate there can be nerve damage, infection or other serious complications.
