WISDOM TEETH ARE THE FURHTEST WITHIN THE DENTAL ARCH AND SOMETIMES REFUSE TO ERUPT. IF THEY ARE MEANT TO GROW, THEY WILL BEFORE THE AGE OF 24 YEARS OLD, 95% OF THE TIME.

Why would you need to have your wisdom teeth removed?

As the human species evolved, jaws have become shorter, and the number of teeth tends to decrease. More and more people have dental agenesis and the third molars (wisdom teeth), lateral incisors or premolars do not erupt.

For wisdom teeth to grow, the back of your jaw must have enough space. However, most people’s jaw is too short, which impacts the growth. If the jaw hasn’t properly grown, the wisdom teeth will be trapped in, or they will come through later and will be impacted.

Most dental experts think that impacted wisdom teeth should be removed to avoid any complications such as pain, infection, or an impact on neighboring teeth. Moreover, if one or more teeth don’t have enough room to properly grow, it can lead to teeth malocclusion or crowding.
