FAQs
Who Needs Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Anyone, regardless of age, can need wisdom teeth removal. However, younger patients, typically under 25, often find the procedure less complex as their tooth roots are not fully developed. Our Sure Dental team will assess your situation with a thorough examination and recommend the best course of action based on your needs.
Do I need all my wisdom teeth removed?
Not necessarily! The need for wisdom teeth removal depends on how your teeth are developing and whether they’re causing problems. Some people have enough room in their mouth for wisdom teeth to grow in properly, while others may face issues like impaction, infection, or crowding. During your consultation, we’ll assess your unique situation with digital X-rays and a thorough evaluation. If your wisdom teeth aren’t causing harm, they may not need to be removed at all!
When is the best time to remove wisdom teeth?
Most wisdom teeth are removed between the ages of 17 and 25, when the roots are not yet fully developed, making the procedure simpler and recovery faster. However, we can remove wisdom teeth at any age if they’re causing problems or putting your oral health at risk.
