Question

My lower wisdom teeth are coming in..without xrays how do I know if they are growing normally..pain away tips?

Answer 1

There really is no way to determine if wisdom teeth are growing normal without having an x-ray.  Even a dentist cannot actually determine what is going on inside of a person's gum.

Y E A R S  ago, when I got my wisdom teeth,  I experienced a lot of pain.  My mother told me then that I had a bad time, too, when I was an infant getting my first teeth.  While my wisdom teeth were coming in I used oil of cloves.  Now there are products out there that are OTC and can be very effective for temporary pain.

When I continued to have problems with my wisdom teeth, the dentist took an x-ray.  He determined that my jaw was not large enough to accept them.  They were already starting to crowd other teeth together.  I had them removed.  

Back then, dentists would usually do this in  the chair.  At least I had them removed while I was in the chair.  There was an option to have them done surgically in a hospital, but I was trying to save my parents money.

If you ever have to have them taken out, I stongly recommend an oral  surgeon.  Years later when I was an adult, the dentist discovered (with x-rays again) that I had a 5th widsom tooth growing in.  Apparrently the first dentist left behind a "seed" that was growing.  This time the tooth was growing sideways into my other teeth.  When I had it taken out, this time it was a simple procedure that was done under local anestesia.  In fact, it was so painless, I had to ask the surgeon when he was going to get started and pull the tooth.  I was behind a rubber dam and couldn't see him working.  He then held up the tooth in front of my eyes and said, "You mean this one?"  He was really funny!

It is important to take care of your teeth when you are young.  It is usually more painful and difficult to correct a problem when a person is older.

By the way,  if you are afraid of exposure to x-rays, dental x-rays use a very minute amount.  You probably can get more from the sun than a dental x-ray.

God bless.

Answer 2

sometimes if the new wisdom came out not growing normally it will trap food particles and sometimes may have inflamation

i used to apply clove oil and it helps

but when clove oil fades off,they pain will come back

use ice pack,gargle with salt water,gargle ur mouth and soak in the position where the wisdom tooth is also helps heaps

use antibacteria mouth wash agent also helps (hold it for at least 2 mins)

if u really can't stand the pain

go to ur local pharmacy and ask for codiene that also helps a lot but try not to rely so much on it

if ur wisdom tooth grows normally, the pain will fade away in a week's time

i wasn't so lucky for my 1st wisdom tooth

it grew in a horizontal position and trapped food particles

everytime it traps food particles,my jaws got inflamation and it was a pain in the a$$. Then i went to the dentist and request to pluck it off
