What Can Happen if You Don’t Remove
Your Wisdom Teeth?

Most adults develop 32 teeth, but the human mouth typically only has space for 28. When wisdom teeth emerge—usually between ages 17-25—this space shortage creates significant oral health risks that often require professional intervention.

If left unaddressed, you will most likely experience pain in your jaw and gums, and face the following:

  • Recurrent infections
  • Damage to your neighboring teeth
  • Bone and gum disease
  • Tumors

In rare cases, patients may have their wisdom teeth healthfully emerge upright and avoid complications of impaction or crowding. However, their location at the very back of the mouth make these teeth incredibly difficult to clean and maintain so risks of future infection, decay and gum disease remain present.

For this reason, our board-certified team at Bergen Oral Surgery recommends you remove your wisdom teeth sooner rather than later.

Do I Need My Wisdom Teeth Removed?

While not all wisdom teeth require removal, many do—especially if they’re impacted or there isn’t enough space for them to grow properly. So, how do you know if it’s time to take them out?

If you experience any of the following symptoms, you may need your wisdom teeth removed:

  1. Soreness or swelling behind your back molars
  2. Your back molar gums become red, inflamed, or tender to the touch
  3. Jaw tightness, pain when chewing, or headaches
  4. A bad taste in your mouth that won’t go away
  5. Shifting teeth or new crowding in your smile
  6. Repeat infections such as pericoronitis or tooth decay in the back of your mouth
