The term \u201cimpacted wisdom tooth\u201d is used to describe this condition <strong>which can lead to a host of other problems in your mouth<\/strong>\u2014including gum disease, bone-destroying cysts, crowding or damage to adjacent teeth, and unwanted decay (due to the difficulty in keeping the area clean).
