Wisdom Tooth Extractions in Sundance

Wisdom Tooth Extractions Near You

A large majority of people have wisdom teeth. Typically, they emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. They're located at the very back of your mouth, on both your top and bottom row of teeth.

In some cases, a person doesn't have any wisdom teeth, or they fit naturally in their mouth and don't need to be removed. However, wisdom tooth surgery is very common because they usually do need to be extracted in order for your other teeth to function properly.
