Dr G Dental Care _ Vadapalani welcomes your dental concerns. to treat you with great care and comfort. A partially impacted wisdom tooth, also known as a third molar, is a condition where the tooth has only partially erupted into the mouth and is not properly aligned with the other teeth. This condition poses a higher risk of developing cavities compared to other teeth and due to their position it makes them challenging to clean. Impaction of wisdom teeth occurs when there is insufficient space for them to grow normally, often due to a lack of space, obstruction, or abnormal positioning. While it is not possible to prevent an impacted tooth, maintaining good dental hygiene can help mitigate potential issues. For more information and appointments contact Dr G Dental Care - Vadapalani
