what are wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth are the third molars and the last ones in the series of teeth. If there is room for them to erupt, they come out at the age of 16 to 24 years old. They can be very useful for chewing if they are well aligned. However, for most people, they do not come out completely, staying impacted in the jaw and should be extracted.
Wisdom teeth are also referred to as 3rd molars. Most of us have four of them in each corner of our mouth. They are the final teeth to develop and usually present themselves in our late teens/early twenties. More often than not, wisdom teeth require removal due to lack of space available. Often, they become trapped (or impacted) within your gums and bone.
