Dental surgery is a medical procedure that involves the removal of teeth or the repair of damaged teeth. It is also used to treat conditions of the gums and jaws.

Dental surgery can be performed by a dentist or an oral surgeon. The type of surgery that is required will depend on the extent of the problem. In most cases, dental surgery is used to remove wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars that erupt in the back of the mouth. They are also known as third molars.

Wisdom teeth usually erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. In some cases, they may not erupt until the 30s or 40s. Impacted wisdom teeth are those that are unable to erupt through the gum line. They may be partially erupted or completely buried in the jawbone. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause a number of problems. They can damage adjacent teeth, cause infections, and lead to cysts or tumors. Impacted wisdom teeth are often removed to prevent these problems. Dental surgery is also used to treat periodontal disease.

Periodontal disease is a condition that affects the gums and bones that support the teeth.
