Wisdom teeth (i.e) third molar is the last tooth in the jaws which would somewhat or completely be caught in your gums or jawbone.  Impacted wisdom teeth occur when there is a lack of room for the wisdom teeth to erupt, which causes them to grow sideways and damage other teeth. This can result in jaw pain, discomfort, overcrowding, tooth decay and gum infection.
We do our utmost to relieve your discomfort by removing the teeth with our experts in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
