Do my wisdom teeth need to be removed??
Im only 14 and I think that my wisdom teeth are growing in i've had my eyes on them for a while and they have caused no problems just a little tricky to clean because they have only grown about half way so far. I've been searching the internet and it hasn't done anything but scare me. I have a fear of the dentist and I have a hard time swallowing pills, from what i've hear I will have to take lots of pain medication which I can't do so it would be a miserable month for me. They are straight and don't appear to be crooked i'm just concerned because the top left one has been a bit sore today and my mom has been trying to get a dentist appointment but can't get one until a month or so from now so i'm really worried even though my dad looked at them and said they look fine and straight. I don't do well with pain so this is all a lot for me. Most wisdom teeth have to be taken out this seems like it is going too well except for the pain. My sister did not have to get hers taken out so i'm hoping it runs in the family.
