Do wisdom teeth affect IQ, and do everyone develop wisdom teeth?

Wisdom teeth are the innermost third molars on the alveolar bone in the human mouth, and the eighth tooth is counted from the middle incisor.

Because it erupts very late, generally between 16 and 25 years old, at this time people's physiological and psychological development is close to maturity, and there is a symbol of "wisdom coming", so it is commonly known as "wisdom teeth".

In terms of wisdom tooth growth, there are great differences among individuals, usually there should be 4 teeth symmetrical from top to bottom, left and right, some have less than 4 or even none, and very few people will have more than 4. There is also a big difference in the age of germination, some people sprout before the age of 20, and some people only grow up or do not grow for life, which is a normal phenomenon.

Impacted wisdom teeth can be very harmful

1) Pericoronitis: The crown of the tooth cannot be completely exposed due to the impaction of wisdom teeth, and the gums around the crown are bag-shaped, which is easy to accumulate food and nourish bacteria. Acute pericoronitis occurs when systemic resistance is reduced.

2) Interstitial infection: The inflammation of pericoronary inflammation may further spread into the interstitial space of the muscle, resulting in interstitial infection. (3) Caries of the second molars:

Impacted wisdom teeth that are tilted forward are prone to caries of adjacent teeth (mandibular second molars) due to the frequent accumulation of food between adjacent teeth. (4) Others: impacted wisdom teeth may also form odontogenic jaw cysts, osteomyelitis, temporomandibular joint disease, etc.

Most wisdom teeth should be removed. If you can pull it out early, you will pull it early, and if you pull it out late, it will cause the above harm. If the disease occurs during pregnancy, it can seriously affect the health of the mother and child.

Young people around the age of 20 are in the period of studying in other places or foreign countries, and their parents are often anxious if acute inflammation occurs, so it is recommended to extract impacted wisdom teeth as early as possible to eliminate the harm of wisdom teeth.

Such wisdom teeth must be extracted:

1.Dental caries. Wisdom teeth with decay can make the socket longer, and it is difficult to fill it, and sometimes a root canal** is required. At this time, it is better to unplug it to avoid future troubles.

2.Squeeze the adjacent teeth.

Wisdom teeth do not have enough space to develop, and they will fall under the adjacent permanent teeth, squeezing the adjacent teeth, causing the adjacent teeth to be unclean or partially absorbed, resulting in discomfort or toothache.

3.Painful sensations.

During the eruption of some wisdom teeth, due to the lack of space, people will feel the feeling of swollen and painful gums. This pain will stay with you for a long time and can be unbearable, so unplugging is the best option.

4.Wisdom teeth cannot be cleaned.

Wisdom teeth grow at the innermost end of the tooth, and some of them are not easy to be cleaned by a toothbrush, which is prone to infection, bacteria and oral health.

5.Wisdom teeth without a counterbite.

Not all wisdom teeth are symmetrically long, and if the wisdom teeth are not aligned, it will cause them to overerupt, affecting the normal occlusion, and may also cause gum, periodontal and nerve pain.

6.Impacted wisdom teeth.

These wisdom teeth are usually buried in the alveolar bone, sometimes painless, not easy to notice, if there is pain or if the examination finds that there is a lesion, it must be removed. Otherwise, it is easy to hide dirt and dirt, breed bacteria, cause bad breath, and cause inflammation.

Wisdom teeth do not affect a person's IQ, it has nothing to do with IQ. But wisdom teeth really hurt, but you can't have a tooth extraction when you have a toothache. Wait until the pain disappears to eliminate inflammation. The inflammation is completely eliminated before the tooth can be extracted.

Wisdom teeth have nothing to do with IQ. Because some people have wisdom teeth, and some people don't. The number of wisdom teeth varies from person to person.

Wisdom teeth erupt at about 20 years old, the specific time is between 16 and 25 years old, of course, there are people in their 40s, 50s, and even read a report that wisdom teeth only erupt in their 70s, so wisdom teeth have nothing to do with intelligence.

It doesn't affect the support, it's just teeth, and it has nothing to do with IQ.

After the "wisdom teeth" are removed, does the "IQ" really go down? After reading it, I have gained insight!

It is said that wisdom teeth are a symbol of a person's wisdom, and everyone will grow them, it is just a matter of time. So is this really the case? Does everyone have wisdom teeth? Is there anyone who doesn't have wisdom teeth? What should we do if we have wisdom teeth?

1. Not everyone will grow

In real life, not everyone will have wisdom teeth, usually the eruption time of wisdom teeth is between the ages of 16 and 25, during this period people's psychology and physiology are relatively developed close to maturity, the appearance of wisdom teeth has become a symbol of "wisdom coming", but in fact, wisdom teeth are just the innermost third molars on the alveolar bone, counting from the front teeth to the eighth tooth. Some people will erupt before the age of 20, while others may not grow until middle age, and some people will not even grow in their lifetime, which is normal.

2. The impact of wisdom teeth

Usually many people will have some uncomfortable symptoms after the wisdom teeth erupt, first of all, when the wisdom teeth first erupt, it will affect the gap between other teeth, and it will lead to a feeling of pain and swelling of the teeth after a long time, and secondly, the wisdom teeth are often in the wrong position when they are partially erupted, which will lead to some gaps, food residues are easy to remain and the toothbrush can not be brushed, so it may cause tooth decay, wisdom teeth pericoronitis and other diseases.

3. Wisdom tooth related treatment methods

Generally speaking, there are two ways to deal with wisdom teeth, one is retention and the other is extraction. If your wisdom teeth are in a correct position, and you can eat and drink normally without causing gum swelling and pain, and you have the corresponding teeth clenching up and down, then you can consider keeping them. However, if your wisdom teeth are not in the right position and cause a series of problems such as swollen and sore gums, then it is recommended to find a professional doctor in a regular hospital for extraction**.

It's important to note that even if your wisdom teeth don't indicate swelling and pain, don't be careless, and it's better to consult your doctor in advance.
