Third molars are commonly referred to as wisdom teeth. They are usually the last teeth to develop and are located in the back of your mouth, behind the second molars. Their development is usually completed between the middle teenage years and early twenties, a time traditionally associated with the onset of maturity and attainment of wisdom. If you do not have enough room in your mouth for your third molars to fully erupt, a number of problems can happen. Impacted wisdom teeth should be removed before their root structure is fully developed. Some of the problems related to not removing your wisdom teeth include, infection, cyst formation, possible crowding, damage to adjacent teeth. Studies have shown that early evaluation and treatment result in superior outcome for the patient.
