Wisdom teeth that erupt can grow in at various angles, sometimes horizontally which may lead to a myriad of more serious dental problems.

It is usually recommended that a Dentist look at your wisdom teeth when you are between ages 16 and 19 because that is when the teeth begin to grow. 

Issues Wisdom Teeth may cause

Severe Pain and headache at rest and with chewing

Damage to other teeth as they grow

Gums inflammation or infection

Damage to the jaw if they develop cysts or tumors

Worsen existing dental issues

Damage dental crowns

Ruin orthodontic treatment
