Wisdom tooth?!
Question:
Wisdom tooth?
I have a wisdom tooth growing in the right side of my mouth but it is really close to the tooth next to it and the gums around the 2 teeth are swollen. Is this normal? Its the 4th or 5th day now and the swelling increased. It is hard to eat too because it is painful...will I have to get it removed or do I let it grow??Thank you for your help!
Answers:
It's best to get xrays at the dentist. They can tell you if you need to have it removed. It can also cause some ppl infections because it's hard to keep food out of there and hard to keep clean. I had all 4 taken out a month ago. Before that, the pain kept escalating. I ignored it for 2 years. Eventually, it got so bad that my jaw, head and ear ached all the time. The worse was geting woken up by it. But once I took them out, the pain was gone. Two were impacted and 2 fully in. See a dentist soon since it's increasing in swelling. Good luck!
