When to Schedule Your Child’s Wisdom Teeth Removal

Many people believe that as long as they are not in pain, they do not have to worry about wisdom teeth removal. However, pain free does not mean disease or problem free. In fact, wisdom teeth that come in normally may still be prone to disease, according to a study by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Foundation. AAOMS strongly recommends that third molars (wisdom teeth) be evaluated by an Oral Surgeon by the time a patient is a young adult in order to assess the presence of third molars, their disease status and to suggest management options. These options range from wisdom teeth removal to a monitored retention plan to ensure optimal patient-specific healthy outcomes. 

In general, dental and medical professionals recommend wisdom teeth extraction in the following instances:

  • Infections and/or periodontal disease
  • Cavities that cannot be restored
  • Pathologies such as cysts and tumors
  • Damage to neighboring teeth

Wisdom teeth that are completely erupted and functional, painless, cavity-free, and disease-free in a hygienic environment with healthy gum tissue may not require extraction. They do, however, require regular, professional cleaning, annual exams and periodic radiographs to monitor for any changes.
