A dental X-ray, or dental X-ray, is a basic examination performed for the purposes of diagnosis and planning of dental treatment.

19 Jul Is the removal of eights necessary?

Posted at 12:53h in Uncategorized

Eight, or wisdom teeth, as they are commonly called, are molars that erupt most often between the ages of 17 and 25 (although not in everyone; they can also appear at much later stages of life) as the last in the dental arch. Modern humans do not really need them. In the past, they were essential for biting and chewing food, which was mainly consumed in its raw form. Nowadays, most of the food consumed is processed, so they do not fulfil such an important function. Consequently, many people wonder whether it is necessary to remove the eights. There is no single answer to such a question. It all depends on the individual case. If there are clear indications for extraction, it should be done. However, if the patient does not suffer from any complaints related to the wisdom teeth, removal is not necessary.
