Pros

  • Food less likely to get trapped (at the far sides of your mouth)

  • Prevent improper growth of wisdom teeth (and surrounding teeth from shifting)

  • Prevent further tooth or gum decay (and reduce impact of current decay and gum disease)

  • Prevent infection and cysts

Cons

  • Typical surgery related risks (infection, injury)
