What are the signs of a non growing wisdom teeth?
i am curious because i had my 2nd molar extracted for my wisdom tooth to have a space to let it grow but i am now having problem, what if i have a wisdom teeth that do not grow? i had my mouth x-rayed before letting my 2nd molar extracted and my dentist said it has no space just for info
thanks for the help
Answers:
with taking an x-ray before extracting the molar the dentist made sure you had a wisdom tooth. The wisdom tooth is already there to be seen on a x-ray before it grows. Ask your dentist to show and explain to you the x-ray next time you go there (teeth cleaning or whatever). And if the wisdom tooth is there, it will eventually grow. And if there is no space for it to grow it would either grow somewhere it's not wanted and could cause you pain or push or existing teeth around and make them crooked.
as not everybody will get wisdom teeth, the doctor would have seen that on the x-ray as well and not extracted your teeth.
