Help!! I see my wisdom tooth coming in?

Question

Geeez I'm 20 years old I thought I was done teeth growing in.. Why is this one coming in now? Is this normal? What should I expect when it grows in? I don't have any dental insurance..

Answer 1

well same thing happen to me and they didn't bother me but since im in the military now they removed mine about year and a half ago and they weren't bothering me at all so if they don't hurt don't bother them but later down the road u should get them taken care of hope this helps later

Answer 2

You should not worry about wisdom teeth coming in unless it is painful.

Answer 3

Yes, it's normal. If you see it coming in, and it isn't crowding any teeth, don't worry about it. Most people have them removed in their early twentys (I was 19) because there simply isn't enough room in their mouth. If you are having pain, tenderness, swelling gums, headaches, etc, get to a dentist. There is no guarantee you will even get all four of them in. I know people who only got two in. In any case, seeing a dentist soon is your best option. If you don't have insurance, see if your city offers a low-income dental solution.

Answer 4

Your at the right age for wisdom teeth to come in...  I didn't get mine pulled till I was 24.  What to expect....  Hmmm..  Depends on how they are laying in your jaw...   All 4 of mine were on thier sides, and when they came in, my mouth didn't have room to accomodate, so they pushed forward on my molars causing discomfort and MAJOR swelling of my gums back there...  No biggie though, when they start to hurt is when it's time to get them pulled...  My mom's came in perfectly straight and she's 55 now and still has them...  So it just depends....  As far as insurance goes, I have a really good dental plan that saved me a TON of money when I had to get mine pulled....  Check them out, maybe they can help you too...  www.savondentalplan.com

Answer 6

That's normal; usually comes in between 15 to 25 years of age.  You can get it evaluated, make sure it doesn't impact your other teeth. I got all 4 of mine removed, they were grown fully.

Answer 7

I didnt get most of my wisdom teeth till i was 20.They were fine though, bit of pain but nothing out of the ordinary.

Answer 8

Relax. This isnt abnormal, for some, their wisdom teeth may never grow in. There is no need to worry about your wisdom teeth until or unless they begin to cause you problems. Many people are able to live comfortably with all 4 wisdom teeth.
