Wisdom teeth usually come in between the ages of 17 and 25. If there is sufficient room for them to emerge in the proper place and position, then they may not need removal. However, if they come in improperly and put your other teeth at risk, they will need to be removed to protect your overall oral health.
Generally, it’s recommended to have wisdom teeth evaluated in your late teens or early 20s. At that age, the wisdom teeth roots are not fully formed, and the extraction process is typically easier with fewer complications. However, every individual is unique. Some people may need their wisdom teeth removed earlier or later depending on factors like overcrowding, impaction, or potential damage to nearby teeth.
While you should feel much better within a day or two, it can take up to two weeks to fully recover. During this time you may experience mild discomfort and swelling. You can speed your recovery by avoiding smoking and alcohol and eating soft foods for the first few days. Rinsing gently with warm salt water also helps lessen gum tenderness and inflammation.
