--
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are usually malpositioned teeth that the majority of humans don't have room for in their mouth for. Surgery to remove wisdom teeth is typically the best course of action. If a wisdom tooth has fully erupted through the gum, a standard tooth extraction is performed. If the tooth has not erupted through the gum, an impacted tooth extraction method is used. Learn more by visiting our website link below and call to schedule a consultation with our Board Certified Oral Surgeon.
