Just How Wise are Wisdom Teeth Anyway!?!

I feel ya, and best of luck to you.

I was sorely blessed with extras, making three on one side that still need to be removed. Been waiting due to the sideways one being impacted during my 20s. Though, a visit recent dental visit says there's still a risk of having a paralyzed side of my face(temporary or permanent) because of the root location I've been stalling it off. It basically risks ruining my work and livelihood due to having to talk to people. It's messed up not only my straight teeth(had braces) but is painful at night because of misalignment.

The teeth have no wisdom. However you will be much wiser after dealing with a set that go bad in the most horrible way.

I had my wisdom tooth removed when I was nineteen from dental care clinic ( www.bloorwestdentistry.ca... ) in High Park. They were crooked and partially emerged which gave me so much pain. There was no pain and bleeding. I was advised not to brush for the next 24 hours and to eat soft foods for first few days.
