智齿拔除

通常，智齿不能正常生长。未能到达其正常位置的智齿可能会受伤，并可能发展成蛀牙、感染或牙周病。通常当这些问题出现时，人们才意识到他们需要拔掉智齿。拔智齿最好在16-22岁之间，这个时候智齿牙冠已经形成，牙根还没有完全形成，并发症和风险都比较少。

Risks of keeping wisdom teeth

You may not be able to reach your wisdom teeth with your toothbrush or dental floss.

Your mouth isn’t big enough. Your jaw has no room for an extra set of molars.

They come in at the wrong angle and may press against your other teeth.

They’re impacted and can be trapped in your jawbone or gums, which can be painful.

Should I have my wisdom teeth removed ?

According to the American Dental Association, wisdom teeth removal may be necessary if you experience changes in the area of those teeth, such as:

  • Pain

  • Repeated infection of soft tissue behind the lower last tooth

  • Cysts (fluid-filled sacs)

  • Tumors

  • Damage to nearby teeth

  • Gum disease

  • Extensive tooth decay
