Why You Still Have Your Wisdom Teeth

Perhaps you have been wondering why you still have your wisdom teeth. Why didn’t anyone ever tell you to have them taken out? Why didn’t you ever agree to have them taken out? Or, why didn’t your parents have them removed when you were a teenager like many of your friends? This is one of those topics that can cause a bit of confusion and that can cause individuals to assume wisdom teeth removal is probably one of those things that nobody really needs. Our Santa Rosa, CA practice would love to help clear away any skepticism and help set you on a path toward better understanding the details!

Why Nobody Told You To Have Them Removed

It’s very possible that nobody ever mentioned that you need your wisdom teeth removed because you don’t need them removed. Sure, you might hear very frequently that they are the type of teeth that always cause problems and you just assume removal is part of life. However, in some cases, they may develop and grow in just fine! Not sure about your own smile? Come in for a visit with our team for the facts you require.

Why You May Have Waited So Long On Problematic Teeth

Maybe you have known for quite a while that you really do need wisdom teeth removal for yourself. However, something has always held you back. If you feel like you’re alone in this, remember that you are not! Many patients simply don’t want to ask about what it entails, they want to pretend everything is okay, or they are just worried about what they experience will be like. Fortunately, when you visit our practice, you will receive extractions from an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, we offer dental sedation for a comfortable experience, and we will send you home fully informed regarding best practices for easy, comfortable recovery!

Why Your Friends’ Third Molars Were Removed (But Not Yours)

So, now you know that your third molars may actually be perfectly healthy (though, since you’re not entirely sure, you are definitely going to come visit our team for an examination!). As for your friends, you might be asking yourself, why did they need their teeth taken out in high school or college? Generally speaking, it may have been elective surgery (which is common, since third molars present so many problems). Or, your friends’ wisdom teeth may have been impacted or growing in poorly, which is most often the case.
