Wisdom teeth

Wisdom teeth are the third molars, the four teeth at the very back of the mouth. Very often, however, they do not have enough room to come in, which leads to impacted or partially impacted teeth.

To avoid complications such as infection, pain or a cyst, Clinique dentaire Bossé Marois recommends extracting these teeth when they stop coming in. Most dental professionals take this preventive approach, since these teeth, lacking room, will eventually become a nuisance rather than a benefit for the patient.
