Answers:
As a dentist I remove wisdom teeth and they do not have to be out at all!. The ideal time to remove them is before you turn 21!. We are really looking for the root to be half formed so the tooth doesn't roll around in the socket when we're trying to get it out!. Also, as you are younger, the bone is not as dense and easier to expand to elevate the tooth out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, you don't have to wait, but your Mom is right!.!.!.do it on your down time!. Many wisdom teeth are extracted before they even break the tissue!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you go to an orthadonist or dentist they'll tell you if you need your wisdom teeth out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
