Should I get my wisdom teeth removed?!


Question: Hi, I am 18 and two of my wisdom teeth are already through, and my bottom two are almost completely through. I have a lot of room in the back of my gums, but should I get them removed? Will it effect my mouth in the future? Is getting your wisdom teeth pulled necessary in life? Or does it not matter for some people to get them removed? My gums haven't hurt at all, and my teeth are not crowding, I think (I have almost straight teeth). Can anyone give me an answer to this question? Ty. :)

Go to your dentist, and get an xray done. Only this can determine the angle of your teeth (most of your tooth you can't even see, let alone determine the angle of the roots).

Your mouth may not be as big as you think. If your wisdom teeth are growing on a funny angle, they will displace all your other teeth and cause much greater havoc later on.

i wouldnt.
unless it looks like they are starting to crowd in on your other teeth or hurt then there is no real need to get them pulled.
unless you want to.... but that is a lot of money wasted on something not needed.
just my opinion

keep them, operating wisedom teeth can be very dangerous for ur dental nerve, so if u can avoid the extraction, avoid it. and btw, you r not the one that decides if you want to take them out, its your dentist ;)

most people opt to get them removed because they are often the subject of impaction or infections.
