Wisdom tooth extraction is a dental procedure used to remove one or more of the third molars located at the back of the mouth. These teeth typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25, but in many cases, there is not enough space for them to grow properly.

Patients seeking wisdom tooth extraction often require this procedure due to crowding, misalignment, or infection. The procedure can be simple or surgical depending on the position of the tooth.
