wisdom tooth removal
Third molar extraction
Wisdom tooth removal is the surgical extraction of one or more third molars—the last teeth to emerge, typically in the late teens or early twenties.
These teeth often become impacted, growing at angles or remaining trapped beneath the gum, causing pain or crowding.
The procedure ranges from simple extraction to oral surgery requiring incisions and bone removal: I'm getting my wisdom teeth out next week.
