• These are the last set of teeth to erupt in the oral cavity, these teeth usually erupt in teenage or early twenties, however they can erupt even after twenties.
• Since these are the last teeth to erupt, there is no enough space for these teeth in the jaw.
• Because of which these teeth are impacted most of the time.
• Due to the lack of space in the jaw sometimes these teeth erupt in an improper position.
• These abnormal position of the teeth can cause infection, inflammation, pain and damage to the surrounding tissues, which needs to be treated immediately.
