Wisdom Teeth Removal in Jaipur – Safe, Expert, and Comfortable Care

Wisdom teeth, also called third molars, are the last set of teeth to emerge, typically between ages 17 and 25. While they once played a crucial role in helping our ancestors chew raw foods, modern diets and smaller jaws have made them less functional—and often problematic.

At Soni Dental Hospital, Jaipur, we specialize in painless, safe, and expert wisdom tooth extractions, including complex impacted cases.

What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth are the final molars located at the very back of your mouth. Some people develop all four, while others may have fewer—or none. They often erupt improperly or remain impacted, causing pain, infection, or damage to nearby teeth.

Because they're hard to clean and often poorly positioned, early evaluation and removal are often recommended to prevent future issues.

Common Problems Caused by Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth can cause a variety of oral health problems, especially when impacted or partially erupted. These include:

Crowding – Pushes nearby teeth, undoing orthodontic treatment

Pain and Discomfort – Due to pressure or infection

Infection (Pericoronitis) – Bacteria accumulates under gum flaps

Tooth Decay – Difficult to clean, leading to cavities

Cysts or Tumors – Rare but can damage jawbone and nerves

Gum Disease – From poor hygiene around impacted areas

Orthodontic Interference – Disrupts braces or aligners

When Should Wisdom Teeth Be Removed?

Not all wisdom teeth need extraction. However, your dentist may recommend removal if you experience:

Persistent pain at the back of the mouth
Swollen or bleeding gums
Difficulty opening the mouth
Bad breath or foul taste
Food getting stuck frequently
Tooth decay or gum infection
Impact on nearby teeth
Orthodontic treatment plans

Early removal during late teens or early 20s is often easier and leads to faster healing.
