β‘οΈ A distomolar is essentially an extra tooth (a 4th molar) that grows behind the wisdom tooth. While rare, these extra teeth can cause crowding or pressure, making surgical removal necessary for long-term oral health.
Grateful for the opportunity to share expertise and enhance our surgical techniques for our patients! π©Ίπ¦·
