Many people need to have their wisdom teeth extracted at some point. A perfectly aligned, completely healthy wisdom tooth can be left alone, but if one grows in crooked or becomes impacted, it will need to be surgically removed before long-term damage is done. Older teens should receive regular checkups so that we can closely monitor the growth of their wisdom teeth; if we notice any potential signs of long-term trouble, we can start planning the procedure long before any damage is done.
