• What is wisdom tooth removal?

  The wisdom teeth grow at the back of your gums and are the last teeth to come through, usually in your late teens or early twenties. Most people have 4 wisdom teeth, 1 in each corner. Wisdom teeth can sometimes emerge at an angle or get stuck and only emerge partially. Wisdom teeth that grow through in this way are known as impacted. If your wisdom teeth are impacted but are not causing any problems, they do not usually need to be removed. But sometimes they cause problems and can be removed.
