Wisdom teeth protruding from jaw?!
Question:
Wisdom teeth protruding from jaw?
I've needed my wisdom teeth removed for some time but I have no coverage and can not afford the surgery. Over the last 6-8 mnths my wisdom truth has been growing downward and is protruding out my jaw line about 1/2 " and getting worse all the time. I've never heard of this happening to anyone and am concerned it will get infected and/or break my jaw. Dentisits please help, will I last till october (when my coverage starts) ????
Answers:
Your situation is serious. I wouldnt recomment you wait. The tooth may cause the jaw to break and the protrusion you see may actually be an infection caused by the tooth causing an expansion in the bone. SO plz try to get it checked, october is too far away.
