What Is Wisdom Teeth Removal?
Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars to emerge, typically appearing in late adolescence or early adulthood. For many individuals in Ventura, these teeth can cause problems like overcrowding, impaction, or infections. Wisdom teeth removal is a routine oral surgery aimed at preventing or resolving these issues, ensuring the long-term health of your smile.
