Wisdom teeth typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25. Not everyone develops these third molars, but for those who do, it’s crucial to monitor them for potential issues.

Common Reasons for Tooth Extraction
Dr. Jessica Pushee may recommend the extraction of one or more of your teeth if any of these common issues apply:
- Impacted Tooth
- Over-retained Baby Teeth
- Decay or Infection
Impacted Tooth
The tooth is trapped beneath the bone or gums and is not emerging properly.
Over-retained Baby Teeth
Emerging teeth may cause other teeth to shift or fail to exfoliate due to a lack of space.
Decay or Infection
When a tooth is severely decayed or infected and cannot be corrected with a filling or root canal treatment, it may require extraction.
