[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My older child had his wisdom teeth out when he was about 18. They didn't "need" to come out, but the prevailing wisdom (ha) at the time was just to have them removed to prevent future crowding. I now have another child who is 19 and the dentist is saying they don't automatically take wisdom teeth out anymore, unless there's an actual problem. My feeling is I would rather have them removed *before* they become a problem - one is out but the other three are impacted. So far, only the one that's out has been a little sore, but he says the other three don't bother him. Anyone have any advice as to remove/not remove?[/quote] If it is a little sore, ask the dentist. Sore because it is erupting and there is room, no big deal. Sore because it is pushing against the nerve of another tooth, it needs to come out. [/quote]
