It’s time to play two ‘tooths’ and a lie! Which one of the following statements are true and which is false? 1. An annual evaluation of your wisdom teeth (known... as third molars) is vital once you reach the age of wisdom. 2. Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to enter your mouth, typically coming in between the ages of 17 and 25. 3. Once your third molars erupt, they never need to be evaluated. . . . If you guessed that No. 3 is the false statement, you are correct! Not all wisdom teeth need to be extracted, but they do all need to be monitored. Find an OMS in your area to have your wisdom teeth evaluated annually. Learn more at MyOMS.org. See more
