Wisdom tooth growth generally has little effect on changes in the shape of the face; inflammation of the wisdom teeth can cause the face to swell and widen. The shape of a person’s face has little to do with wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth are at the very back of the mouth and can be blocked due to lack of space during eruption. Wisdom tooth eruption has little effect on changes in the shape of the face. There is no widening of the face due to wisdom tooth eruption. Wisdom tooth pericoronitis occurs under bacterial infection, and the inflammation invades the space between the maxillofacial area, resulting in a gap infection and facial swelling, which can cause a widening of the face. After the inflammation subsides, the face returns to its normal shape. Therefore, the growth of wisdom teeth will not make the face wider, but the gap infection caused by wisdom teeth pericoronitis will cause a temporary change in the shape of the face. After the inflammation subsides, the face will return to its normal shape on its own.
