Unlike most teeth, wisdom teeth usually do not appear until adulthood. This is widely believed to be the reason that they are called "wisdom" teeth, owing to the fact that one is "wiser" as an adult. However, these latecomers are actually "vestigial" meaning that they do not serve a practical purpose in modern humans (much like the appendix). At Greater Louisville Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates in Jeffersonville, however, we know that in many cases, neglecting to have them removed can actually be harmful to your oral health. Problems that may occur include infections, increased pain, nerve damage, and disruption of orthodontic procedures involving braces or retainers.
