Wisdom teeth are known as the third molars. They usually erupt between an individual's late teens and mid twenties. Generally we have four wisdom teeth, however, the number can be between 0 – 4. The development of the wisdom teeth is usually quite gradual over a period of around 7 years. Due to the slow development taking place problems often occur which can cause sudden and severe pain.
By our late teens our jawbone is approximately adult size and often the size is too small to accommodate developing wisdom teeth. The teeth often become impacted and/or trapped in the jawbone and gums. The wisdom tooth may remain in the bone or partially erupt through the gum. The roots can be problematic by growing in different directions; this frequently leads to a range of problems involving your sinus cavity or the nerve in your lower jaw. The ultimate preventative measure would be tooth removal during the wisdom tooths early development.
Often cost of wisdom tooth removal is a concern for patients, we pride ourselves in offering some of the lowest costs for wisdom teeth removal in Melbourne and Tasmania. We also offer a range of payment options along with health plans which can reduce tooth extraction cost.
