What are wisdom teeth for?!


Question: What are wisdom teeth for!?
Answers:
Wisdom teeth is just the name for the third set of molars that come in in the back of your mouth, usually between the age of 17-25!. They have no use other than chewing, like your other teeth!. If there is not enough room in your mouth, they can cause a great deal of pain when they come in, because of the pressure put on the other teeth to make room for the incoming wisdom teeth!. If they cause these problems, they are removed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Chewing food if you have room on your jaw for them!. Otherwise you better have them removed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Chewing certain food your other teeth can't do alone, and getting a bigger mouth later on in life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ONE of the theory of evolution's important deceptions is its claim
regarding "vestigial organs!." Evolutionists claim that some organs in
living things lose their original function over time, and that such
organs then disappear!. Taking that as a starting point, they then try
to send out the message, "If the living body had really been created,
it would have no functionless organs in it!."
Evolutionist publications at the start of the twentieth century
announced that the human body contained up to a hundred organs that no
longer served any purpose, including the appendix, the coccyx, the
tonsils, the pineal gland, the external ear, the thymus, and wisdom
teeth!. However, the decades that followed saw major advances in medical
science!. Our knowledge of the organs and systems in the human body
increased!. As a result of this, it was seen that the idea of vestigial
organs was just a superstition!. The long list drawn up by evolutionists
rapidly shrank!. It was discovered that the thymus is an organ which
produces important immune system cells, and that the pineal gland is
responsible for the production of important hormones!. It also emerged
that the coccyx supports the bones around the pelvis, and that the
external ear plays an important role in identifying where sounds come
from!. In short, it emerged that ignorance was the only foundation on
which the idea of "vestigial organs" rested!.

Modern science has many times demonstrated the error of the concept of
such organs!. Yet some evolutionists still try to make use of this
claim!. Although medical science has proved that almost all of the
organs that evolutionists claim are vestigial actually serve a purpose,
evolutionary speculation still surrounds one or two organs!.The most
noteworthy of these is our wisdom teeth!. The claim that these teeth are
a part of the human body that has lost all purpose still appears in
evolutionist sources!. As evidence for this, it is stated that these
teeth give a great many people a lot of trouble, and that chewing is
not impaired when they are surgically removed!.
Many dentists, influenced by the evolutionists' claim that wisdom teeth
serve no purpose, have come to see their extraction as a routine
matter, and do not make the same kind of effort to protect them as they
do for other teeth!. However, research in recent years has shown that
wisdom teeth have the same chewing function as other teeth!. Studies
have also been carried out to show that the belief that wisdom teeth
damage the position of other teeth in the mouth is completely
unfounded!. Scientific criticism is now amassing ways in which problems
with wisdom teeth which could be solved in other ways are instead
solved by extracting them!. In fact, the scientific consensus is that
wisdom teeth have a chewing function just like all the others, and that
there is no scientific justification for the belief that they serve no
purpose!.

So, why do wisdom teeth cause a substantial number of people problems!?
Scientists who have researched the subject have discovered that wisdom
tooth difficulties have manifested themselves in different ways among
human communities at different times!. It is now understood that the
problem was seldom seen in pre-industrial societies!. It has been
discovered that the way in which soft foodstuffs have come to be
preferred to harder ones, over the last few hundred years in
particular, has negatively affected the way the human jaw develops!. It
has thus been realised that most wisdom tooth troubles emerge as a
result of jaw development problems relating to dietary habits!.

It is also known that society's nutritional habits also have negative
effects on our other teeth!. For instance, the increasing consumption of
foodstuffs high in sugar and acid has increased the rate that other
teeth decay!. However, that fact does not make us think that all our
teeth have somehow "atrophied!." The same principle applies to wisdom
teeth!. Problems with these teeth stem from contemporary dietary
customs, not from any evolutionary "atrophy!."

What Are Wisdom Teeth!?
Your third molars (most commonly known as Wisdom Teeth) are the last teeth to erupt into your mouth!. Wisdom teeth usually erupt during your late teens or early twenties!. Often they are impacted!. This means that they are unable to get through the dense bone of the jaw and overlying gum tissue, many times due to limited space in your mouth!. This lack of space seems to be because modern man has a smaller jaw than people from ancient times!. Nine out of ten people have at least one wisdom tooth that remains underneath the gum due to lack of space in the mouth!.

Why Do I Have Wisdom Teeth!?
Early humans had a tough abrasive diet that included hulls from coarse grain and bits of stone from the processing techniques that they used!. Needless to say, early humans needed more teeth and more chewing power to sustain themselves!.

Why Should I Remove My Wisdom Teeth!?
As you approach your late teens your jawbone has grown to nearly its adult size!. Often the adult size is still not large enough to accommodate the developing wisdom teeth!. In this case, your teeth become trapped in the bone and grow wherever they can!. As the tooth grows, it may remain completely covered by bone or may partially break through the gum exposing the crown (or chewing surface) of the tooth!. As the tooth continues to develop, so do the roots associated with the tooth!. The tooth's roots hold the tooth in place!. They may become misshapen or extend dangerously close to the nerve located in the jaw or to a sinus cavity!.

If your wisdom teeth erupt through the gum or partially erupt, they are often hard to keep clean!. This can put you at a high risk of decay and infection!. Also you may be unaware that your wisdom teeth are pushing on adjacent teeth!. This pressure may cause the teeth to shift!.

You may not even know that you have wisdom teeth if they are impacted!. The onset of sudden pain may be caused by an impacted wisdom tooth or may indicate infection of surrounding gum tissue and bone, or pressure on an adjacent tooth!. Additionally, impacted teeth can develop cysts or tumors that can become enlarged over time and destroy the jaw bone and adjacent teeth!. Like the wisdom teeth they are associated with, you may have no symptoms to indicate their presence!. Usually, these cysts or tumors can be identified on a panorex x-ray!.

When Should I Have My Wisdom Teeth Evaluated!?
It is usually recommended that a panorex x-ray is taken by your dentist, orthodontist or oral and maxillofacial surgeon before age 16 to 17 to evaluate for possible impacted wisdom teeth and predict if there may be present or future problems associated with the wisdom teeth!. Studies have shown that early evaluation and treatment results in a superior outcome for the patient by decreasing the difficulty of the extractions and lowering the possible risks associated with the surgery!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
