Default Anyone have Wisdom Teeth?

I can feel one of them coming in in the back of my mouth. It doesn't hurt. But I don't want them removed, I HATE oral surgery, its horrible. Can you have Wisdom Teeth and not have to have them removed? Or do they usually cause infections or something?

You only have to have them removed if they are causing problems. I had one removed that was completely showing. They just numbed my gums, cracked the tooth in half and pulled out the pieces. Took like 10 minutes and hardly hurt at all.

there's a chance of them impacting or sliding your teeth forward, just deal with it and enjoy the codeine

I got mine taken out during senior year. Mine didn't even break. So I have all 4 in perfect condition in a baggie thing somewhere on one of my shelves.

I had three of mine pulled a couple months ago. The worst part about it was the 48 hours after. I didn't really feel them getting pulled out, it was just kinda like a release of pressure as the teeth came out.

I wasn't really swollen at all. My face looked exactly the same.

just deal with it man, not to big a deal. if you go to a oral surgeon, not a dentist, they can usually not make you puffy.
