The third set of molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth, are located at the very back of your mouth and are typically the final teeth to appear. It’s not uncommon for individuals to reach their twenties or beyond before their wisdom teeth emerge.
While healthy wisdom teeth may not cause problems, issues arise when there’s insufficient space at the back of your mouth. This can lead to your wisdom teeth growing at an angle or becoming impacted, meaning they only partially emerge.
Dental HQ Bankstown is equipped to remove your wisdom teeth if they’re causing discomfort or health issues. Whether your wisdom teeth are impacted, angled improperly, or unerupted, Dr Jos Laramie and our team offer safe and effective extraction procedures.

For detailed information on wisdom tooth extraction, post-extraction care, and other recommendations, consider scheduling a consultation at Dental HQ Bankstown.
