So I just looked inside my mouth and noticed that one of my wisdom teeth has already started to come through the gum. A significant amount to. I was really hoping to avoid the whole wisdom tooth thing, but I'm guessing this probably means no. I have a sore near the area, but whether or not they are related is yet to be determined. Otherwise, it

Two of my wisdom teeth have come through, and I need to get them pulled soon.

D:

You are not alone!!

[stephen27]

You can see them too? Are they hurting you right now? I think now mine is causing a dull pain a bit, but its not too bad.

I can see two of them yup. They don't hurt right now, but they have off and on in the past. Thing is, they've actually grown in pretty straight, but my dentist still says I should get them pulled. *shrug*

I had to have all four pulled at the same time. Fun times.

[stephen27]

Oh man, ouch. Hopefully I won't have to have them all out, but who knows.

If I get mine pulled theres a chance I could lose feeling in my face. If I don't there's an even bigger chance of this happening...angst!

Oh yeah, Jess, after I wrote this I remembered how worse your situation is and felt like a baby. Have you made any decisions yet?

Weird side note, I talked to my boss, and he said he never got his out, but all that happens for him is for about a week each year they come in a little and hurt but then it goes away.

I guess the problem for me is since they're impacted, and my jaw is so little, the roots had nowhere to go but around my facial nerves, and now the tops are pressed up against my back molars inside my gums. YAY!

I diagnose myself with:
