Wisdom Tooth Extraction at Age 20

Wisdom teeth are the third molars that should erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. There are a total of 4 wisdom teeth, located in the upper and lower jaws. For wisdom teeth that are fully embedded in the jawbone and show no signs of decay, extraction is generally required.

Fully Impacted Wisdom Teeth: These teeth, which cannot erupt fully due to jaw narrowness, can cause crowding in the front teeth and decay in neighboring teeth.

Partially Impacted Wisdom Teeth: These teeth are partially visible in the mouth, with the other portion covered by the gums, and can lead to infection caused by food trapping under the gum.

Considering these situations, the extraction of wisdom teeth under local anesthesia is generally the most suitable solution.
