Wisdom Teeth in Toronto

Wisdom teeth are the third molars that typically develop toward the back of the mouth.

Some wisdom teeth emerge without significant problems, while others may become impacted, partially erupted or difficult to maintain.

At Mabelle Dental Yorkville, we can assess wisdom teeth and recommend monitoring or treatment based on your individual situation.

What Is an Impacted Wisdom Tooth?

A wisdom tooth is described as impacted when it cannot fully erupt into its expected position.

Its position, available space and surrounding tissues can all influence how it develops.

Possible Signs of Wisdom Tooth Problems

Contact a dentist if you experience:

• Pain at the back of your mouth
• Swollen or tender gums
• Jaw discomfort
• Difficulty opening your mouth
• Repeated inflammation
• Food trapping around a partially erupted tooth
• Unpleasant taste or persistent bad breath

Some wisdom teeth cause no symptoms and are identified during examination or dental imaging.

Do All Wisdom Teeth Need Removal?

No.

A dentist considers the position, development, symptoms, ability to maintain the area and surrounding structures before recommending removal.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

If extraction is appropriate, your dentist will discuss the procedure, expected recovery, relevant risks and aftercare instructions.

Does everyone need their wisdom teeth removed?

No. Some can remain and be monitored when they are healthy and appropriately positioned.

They are commonly evaluated during the teenage years and young adulthood, although development varies between patients.

Local anesthetic and other appropriate comfort-management measures may be used depending on treatment.

Recovery varies depending on tooth position, treatment complexity and individual healing.
