Wisdom teeth also known as the third molars were provisions for our ancestors to help chew coarse, rough food such as hard items like nuts, roots and leaves. But in current times those teeth have not outlived their purpose and thus cause extreme discomfort and pain and also can damage existing teeth.
They do not need to be removed if they erupt:
Most of the time wisdom teeth do not have room to grow properly and, therefore will cause problems. Depending on how much room is available wisdom teeth can grow at various angles in the jaw, sometimes even horizontally.
It is best to remove wisdom teeth when younger as the treatment experience is more pleasant and less intrusive in lifestyle whilst also avoiding possible future problems.
