Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to come in—usually between the late teens and early twenties. For many people, there just isn’t enough room for them to grow in properly. When they become impacted or crowd other teeth, removing them can help protect your long-term oral health.
At Woolf Dental, we evaluate wisdom teeth as part of your routine care and help you decide if and when removal is the right step. While not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed, many patients benefit from taking action early—before these teeth cause pain, infection, or damage to nearby teeth.
