Wisdom teeth

One of the most common oral surgical procedures carried out is wisdom tooth extraction. Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, normally erupt into the mouth between the ages of 17 and 25. Unfortunately, wisdom teeth can become impacted either due to lack of space or because the developing wisdom tooth has an abnormal position to allow normal eruption.

I had a check up and repair to a chipped front tooth. It was the most comprehensive check up I have had. I understood why I was having problems with my flossing from an excellent briefing using my X-rays and my chip was fixed by a dental artist. After six months it is still perfect and my next check up indicated my new flossing regime is working, hurrah!
