Wisdom Teeth?


Question:
My wisdom teeth started growing in June and now I'm up to my third one. My problem is, none of them have come out fully, and more than half of it is covered by my gum. I can feel the tooth far below, but it doesn't seem that it's going to come out anytime soon?
Should this cause any concern?

Answers:
If you have room for them to grow in fully then they should not cause a problem but if they stay half under, they can create a food trap which can cause bad breath and is easily infected. Talk to your dentist about it.
Yes you should be concerned. It sounds like you are going to have to have them cut out. Believe me that is no fun. You are awake for the whole process.
