What Is a Wisdom Tooth and Why Is Removal Needed?

Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars, usually erupting between the ages of 17 to 25. Often, there isn’t enough space in the jaw to accommodate them, which leads to complications.

Common reasons for removal include:

• Partially erupted or impacted teeth

• Pain or swelling near the last molars

• Cavities due to difficulty in cleaning

• Infections, abscesses, or gum issues

• Pressure on other teeth causing misalignment

  
  

👉 For a clinical explanation of impacted wisdom teeth, refer to the Indian Dental Association's guide on impaction.
