Wisdom Teeth - Cysts
 As wisdom teeth develop, the cells that help develop the tooth structure
& bone complex can develop into cysts. Cysts are fluid filled sacs which can drastically destroy
and deform surrounding bone. This can develop into a significant problem if left undetected.
If left undetected, the cyst can destroy bone to the point of needing extensive
reconstructive jaw surgery. It can also lead to the deformation of ones
facial appearance.
Thus, It is beneficial to have an
x-ray assessment of your jaw to determine whether early extraction of the wisdom
teeth is required.
