Most of us know that our third molars — wisdom teeth — typically come in during our late teens or early 20s, when we’re hopefully learning and gaining wisdom at college or starting new jobs!
Wisdom teeth can cause problems when they come in only part way or not at all. When this happens, they’re called partially or fully impacted wisdom teeth.
Wisdom teeth can also grow in at odd angles and can crowd your other teeth. Often the solution for problems with wisdom teeth is to extract them. At Dr. Shirley Cagle’s dental office in the Woodlands, we can help you determine if wisdom tooth extraction is right for you. If it is, then we’re here to make the experience as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
If you’re having pain or problems with your wisdom teeth, call our Woodlands dental office at 855.251.4554 so that Dr. Cagle can evaluate your situation. We may also be able to tell if you’re likely to have problems in the future, or if you have wisdom teeth at all! Nearly 35% of all people don’t have them. So if it’s time for a checkup, call us today! Remember, prevention is always a wise move!
