Usually extraction: Wisdom teeth that become problematic are usually extracted. They are not needed. Call a local oral surgeon for an evaluation to discuss your options and the associated fees.

Wisdom teeth: in many cases wisdom teeth should be extracted due to complications associated with their alignment. If you are experiencing wisdom teeth swelling or pain see your dentist. Often extracting a wisdom tooth is the best solution. Wisdom teeth removal is necessary for about 85% of the adults.
