Why Might a Wisdom Tooth Partially Erupt?
Wisdom teeth may need to be removed by a dentist and this is normally the result of a partial eruption. However, what causes a partially erupted wisdom tooth? Let us briefly list three common issues which might cause such a situation:
- Those with smaller jaws are more likely to experience this issue.
- Overcrowded teeth within the mouth is also quite common.
- A tooth may erupt at an abnormal angle.
The procedure to have a wisdom tooth remove is standard and safe, and will involve anesthetic so there’s no pain during the procedure.
