    Common symptoms include jaw pain, swelling, and tenderness around the back of the mouth. Patients may notice red or bleeding gums, difficulty opening the mouth, bad breath, or an unpleasant taste from infection (pericoronitis). Pain can radiate to the ear or head, and partially erupted teeth trap food, increasing decay risk.

      Getting wisdom teeth removed early prevents many complications outlined here, like infections or damage to nearby teeth. After extraction, aligning the smile and enhancing its appearance often becomes easier—consider cosmetic dental care for options like whitening or veneers to achieve a confident, polished look. Helpful read!

Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Symptoms, Risks, and Solutions
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, typically emerge between ages 17 and 25. However, many people experience impaction, where these teeth fail to erupt properly due to lack of space, abnormal positioning, or obstruction in the jaw. Impacted wisdom teeth can remain asymptomatic for years but often lead to complications requiring intervention.
