A majority of people should have their third molars out. Wisdom teeth removal is something we do regularly at Dossett Dental in Hurst, TX.

Typically, we recommend doing this when people are in their late teens or early 20s. Some common reasons for this are mentioned below. Call 214-740-6082 (Frisco) 817-270-9217 (Hurst) 972-787-1869 (McKinney) for an appointment for yourself or someone you love.

Impaction

Impacted teeth have not erupted fully. Partially impacted teeth have broken the surface of the gums. Fully impacted teeth remain below the gumline. Either way, they can cause a number of additional problems.

Crowding

When your wisdom teeth don’t have room to erupt, they will push for position. This means pushing into the teeth that you already have. 

Cavities & Gum Disease

Tooth decay and periodontal infections can affect anyone. However, impacted wisdom teeth can make it more likely that you will develop these problems in the back of your mouth.

Jaw Problems

Your third molars can hurt more than just your smile. If they erupt at odd angles, they can alter your bite and cause misalignment of your jaw.
