Why does Dr.
Healey recommend wisdom teeth be removed?
 Wisdom
teeth usually appear in young adults between the ages of 15
and 25. Some wisdom teeth will grow in normally; others are "impacted." An impacted
wisdom tooth allows no room for the rest of your teeth to
grow. Dr. Healey uses X-rays to evaluate whether your wisdom teeth have any
chance of coming in properly and can advise you on the best time to have
wisdom tooth removal.
When there is no room for wisdom teeth to come in properly or when the teeth haven't reached their permanent
location by age recommends removing the tooth early, before wisdom tooth and other dental complications can
develop.
