The present study aims to justify the possibility of utilizing morphometric methods to foresee problems in the eruption of third molars.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Materials and Methods\u2003A comprehensive morphometric study of the lower jaw and facial skeleton involves 100 skulls of Homo sapiens to identify the anatomical causes of problems with wisdom teeth eruption.
