Question

And i'm 17...

Answer 1

Yeh Im 19 and I got mine a few years ago.  I dont feel the wisdom tho lmao

Answer 2

Yes, I got mine when I was 24, so now I am full of wisdom!

Yea I have had students get them removed as young as 15, just got my last one in at the age of 28. Wide range. hope you feel better.

Answer 14

Answer 15

well, I got mine at 15, and my fiance's getting his now, at 22, It's usually in your late teens to early 20's in any case, but I would still get it checked out by a dentist. it could be something else like a cavity or abscess. and sometimes your jaw won't be big enough for the extra teeth.

and believe me , if they start to crush your other teeth it's gonna hurt a lot more.
