Answers:
No obviously! But they can cause all sorts of problems in the mouth especially if they are decayed or are coming in the wrong way!
Sometimes the are no problems with wisdom teeth and people have them their whole lives!. Years ago dentist took out wisdom teeth whether there was a problem or not!. Now things are different and we don't do that anymore because it's surgery and if there's no reason to take them out just let them be!.
Your best bet is to go a dentist and have them x-rayed and examed professionally!. Also make sure you brush well back there!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can't die as a direct result of simply not having your wisdom teeth removed, no!. However, if you have impacted, problematically positioned, or partially erupted wisdom teeth, you could develop problems such as cysts or infections!. An untreated infection, in particular, could theoretically spread throughout the body and ultimately kill you!. But just the teeth by themselves won't do it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

only if u have an untreated infection of ur wisdom teeth and it goes to ur brain,which can and does happen!.a lot in the years b4 antibiotics,occasionally now in poor children without means to pay for health/dental care!.famously,this happened to a young boy denied treatment due to parents inability to payfor an emergency dental appointment!.!.a simple antibiotic would have saved him,there was a court case about 3 years ago!.if u developed such an infection,antibiotics would surely save u!.however,once cured,these types of infections tend to re-occur,my bet is eventually u will get tired of the infections and pain and even if ur scared,u will have them out!.that happened to me! i went from"no!never!" to "hand me some pliers,i swear i'll rip these darn things out myself!"u can be put to sleep and not even know!.if u need it,do it!.kinda scary,but best to get it over with!.good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, your teeth will shift and look crowded, and it is kind of hard for some people to clean them because sometimes the toothbrush doesn't reach all the way there!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
