My Wisdom Teeth Grew In Just Fine: Now What?

You might hear lots of stories from friends and assorted family members who had some serious issues with their wisdom teeth! As you listen to these details of impacted teeth and more, do you do your best to shrink into the background and hide? After all, your third molars came in just fine, they didn’t damage your alignment, and they weren’t impacted. So … now what? Is this strange? Are you overlooking something? Perhaps everyone needs wisdom teeth removal but you just haven’t realized it yet. Not to worry. We can explain.

No, It’s Not Always Necessary

Believe it or not, wisdom teeth removal is not something that every single person on earth will have to deal with at some point. Like with your experience, sometimes these final molars develop, grow in, and cause absolutely no problems for the patient. Now, this is where it’s time to perk up a bit: Remember that if your teeth cause no issues for you, then they do not require removal. However, just because they haven’t pressed against your other teeth and didn’t fail to erupt doesn’t mean they’re perfect. Electing to remove them may be to your benefit!

Why Remove These Teeth?

It may be to your advantage to move forward with elective wisdom teeth removal even if you have not been affected by serious trauma with these teeth if you are experiencing the following:

  • The teeth are positioned so far back in your smile that you find it’s difficult to reach them with your brush and satisfactorily clean them
  • You are experiencing decay or similar concerns with your third molars because of their location
