Why Wisdom Teeth Cause Problems
When there isn't enough room
Wisdom teeth often cause pain, swelling, crowding and repeated infections when there isn't enough room for them to come in properly.
Pain & swelling
Pain and swelling at the back of the mouth are common signs a wisdom tooth is struggling to come through.
Crowding
When there isn't enough room, wisdom teeth can push against other teeth and cause crowding or damage.
Repeated infections
Partly erupted wisdom teeth are hard to keep clean, which can lead to repeated infections and gum problems.
