  Noncommutative geometry, an offshoot of string theory, replaces point-like
structures with smeared objects and has recently been extended to higher
dimensions. The purpose of this letter is to obtain wormhole solutions with
this extended noncommutative geometry as a background. It is found through this
investigation that wormhole solutions exist in the usual four, as well as in
five dimensions, but they do not exist in higher-dimensional spacetimes.
