Do You Really Need to Get Your Wisdom Teeth Pulled?

Wisdom teeth come out between the ages of 12 to 25, and some doctors recommend having them removed. But is it necessary? Do we really need to get our wisdom teeth pulled?
In some cases, there is absolutely no need to remove your wisdom teeth. If they don’t interfere with the normal functioning of neighboring teeth, it means that your mouth is big enough to accommodate all four of your wisdom teeth. The same is true if they’re straight and not at an angle to their neighbors, which can create hard-to-reach places for bacteria to grow.
If there isn't enough space in the mouth and all adjacent teeth are already snug as it is, the erupting wisdom tooth brings the risk of damaging the nearby teeth. In this case, it’ll cause pain in your whole mouth and problems with chewing! Poor oral hygiene because of stuck food in wisdom teeth that didn’t’ fully come in can cause a large buildup of bacteria, which can lead to even more problems like oral cavity diseases.
Most dentists agree that the younger you are when you have your wisdom teeth removed, the better. After you turn 25, all the bone tissues have formed completely. This means that the teeth are more difficult to remove, and the surrounding tissues heal more slowly.
After you’ve had your wisdom teeth removed, the best post-op diet for you is milkshakes and ice cream. These foods are soft and cold, which is good because it soothes the pain.

SUMMARY
-You don’t need to remove healthy fully grown wisdom teeth that stand straight and don’t interfere with the normal functioning of neighboring teeth.
-In case they’re completely hidden under the gums and can’t erupt through the surface, didn't fully come in and there isn't enough space in the mouth and all adjacent teeth are already snug as it is, the erupting wisdom tooth brings the risk of damaging the nearby teeth. You should also remove wisdom teeth if tumors have formed, there’s inflammation in the gums and tooth decay.
-There's nothing wrong with keeping your wisdom teeth if you regularly visit a dentist and get x-rays of your jaw. In this case, you can learn about a potential problem, like improper wisdom tooth growth.
-After the surgery, exercise the jaw by opening and closing your mouth. Eat soft foods like soup, pasta, mashed potatoes and so on. Drink lots of liquids. Start brushing your teeth only the next day after the surgery. Do it very delicately.
-Do not smoke, don’t be too active and harsh while rinsing your mouth. Do not eat sticky or hard food. It can disturb or scratch your wound. Do not drink through a straw.
-35% of people are born without wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth are the only teeth that aren't formed in the womb.

Just had mine removed today, it felt like I was delivering a baby thru the mouth

[harpoongaming]

I ain’t scared of getting my teeth removed I’m scared what I will say when the operation is over

[xving]

My mom’s is a dentist (short term) so here’s the real answer.
Every person is different. If your mouth is to crowded with teeth you SHOULD get them out because it can cause pain and other symptoms similar. However, if your mouth is not very crowded you probably don’t have to get them out. Although I’m not a professional that’s basically the most straight forward answer. I got mine out recently and you just have to take good care of your mouth while it’s recovering so you don’t get an infection. Have a good day :)

I got my wisdom teeth at the age of 16, which I am still 16 now and I got them pulled off on new years eve of 2019, heading into the new year 2020!! I felt literally no pain, dispite what people had said, on the scale of 1-10 I felt a solid 3 of pain, so it was low and doable for me. I am wisdom teeth free now and what a great way to start the new year!!!

[E--Drop]

THANK YOU, This is what I've been saying, not everyone needs to have their wisdom teeth pulled out.

This video also had decent examples of people whose wisdom teeth DO need to be pulled out.

My wisdom teeth are growing and I’m in agony right now☹️😣

[rosemarychang]

I got one of mine removed and it went really well. It took less than 5 mins to get it extracted. There was no pain, didn’t experience any sort of discomfort. And the best part you get to eat ice cream after!

[SayamhPaul]

Recently I removed my wisdom 🦷 as it was impossible to bear the pain. The surgery is simple and uncomplicated. You will feel no pain at all. Just a 5 minute procedure. Now I set myself free and loud-out loud. Follow the healing process mentioned in the video.
