[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dentist is not at all someone who pushes procedures in any way. But he did encourage me to get my wisdom teeth out, even though they were not bothering me one bit and were in straight. What he said is that when you're older, you're more prone to having problems that are harder to fix, you don't heal as quickly, and are more likely to get complications. So I got mine out at 47 and it took less than a half hour.[/quote] I had mine out at 35. They were all impacted. The surgery itself took less than an hour but I had a long and painful recovery and some complications including dry socket and developing a hematoma. My teen DD recently had hers out, they were all impacted too, and her recovery was 2-3 days of discomfort. I so wish I had mine out earlier. [/quote]
