Wisdom teeth X-ray

X-rays of mouth before and after wisdom teeth removal.

Wisdom teeth are the upper and lower third molars, located at the very back of the mouth. In some people, wisdom teeth are crowded and difficult to clean properly. They may also push against other teeth. In these cases, the wisdom teeth can be extracted (removed).
