Why Wait Until After High School?

Many parents think wisdom teeth should come out after high school—but by then, the roots are fully formed, and complications are more likely.

Between the ages of 13 and 18, the roots are still developing. That means:

And if wisdom teeth are impacted or grow in the wrong direction?
That can lead to pain, infections, damage to other teeth, and more. Our goal is to help you avoid all of that.

What Happens if Wisdom Teeth Stay In?

Wisdom teeth are the last to arrive—and there’s often just not enough room for them. When they don’t come in properly, they can cause:

Pain and pressure

- in the back of the jaw

Crowding or shifting

- of other teeth

Tooth decay

- they’re hard to clean

Gum infections

- or inflammation

Cysts

- or bone damage from impacted teeth

Removing them early—before they start causing problems—protects your teen’s smile and overall oral health.

“My son had an amazing experience! …, he has had virtually no pain after the first few hours. No swelling, no bruising. He was back to normal that same night, and everything looks like it’s healing really well. Hardly any bleeding. Totally recommend! Amazing staff and doctors.”
T.S.
“My son had his wisdom teeth surgery… this week. It was a pleasant (maybe not as much for him) experience; seamless, organized and everyone was friendly, professional and helpful. The Dr. took the time to explain everything beforehand and had a warm and professional bedside manner. Highly recommend.”
J.E.
