Why Patients Ask About Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth are the last molars to appear, usually in the late teens or early twenties. For some, they grow in normally without causing issues. For others, they can create pain, crowding, or infections. Patients in Bergen County often ask whether removal is really necessary.

At Perfected Smiles, Dr. Jason Schepis, DMD and Dr. Ryan Maher evaluate each patient to determine the best course of action.

When Wisdom Teeth Become a Problem

Wisdom teeth often cause trouble when there isn’t enough space for them to grow properly. They may become impacted, pushing against other teeth or remaining trapped under the gums. This can lead to swelling, infection, or shifting of surrounding teeth.

Recognizing these signs early helps prevent more serious complications.

Benefits of Removing Wisdom Teeth

  1. Prevents crowding and misalignment.

  2. Reduces risk of infection and gum disease.

  3. Eases pain or pressure in the jaw.

  4. Protects nearby teeth from damage.

Many Bergen County patients choose removal as a preventive step, even before problems occur.
