some never come in. talk to your dentist. they should take xrays every year.
Around what age do you get your wisdom teeth and what problems can it cause?
15-18 and they rearrange your teeth so most people get them pulled
Reply:Usually around 17 or 18 years of age, judging by my experience and the experience of others I know.
Reply:U get them taken out around 16 and it can cause bleeding in ur mouth
Reply:usually late teens to early twenties, and they can become impacted, grow in at weird angles, crowd other teeth, and just be really painful. Sometimes they do end up coming in straight, though, but there is usually still at least a little bit of soreness when they come in.
Reply:I WAS IN MY LATE 20S AND I HAD THEM REMOVED ALL 4 AT THE SAME TIME.
Reply:I think the dentist didn't notice mine until I was an adult.... getting your teeth can vary from age to age and some people don't even get them! They typically are weaker teeth and because of their location, they can get decayed or they can squeeze the rest of your teeth so that they're crooked. The best thing to do is if you're experiencing any problems is to go have a dentist check them out for you... it's better than waiting, when things can get worse.
Reply:it can vary on the age but you need to be heavily sedated to have them out at onetime you wee put in hospital and put top sleep to have this done
Reply:at 17 an no problems
Reply:Usually around the age of 18yr on but you can be older. I had two cut out at the age of 23yr, the other two never came in. Then when I turned 46yr one started coming in and I have been cutting it for 9yrs. Think it is finally through completely. I've heard of a 70yr old man cutting one before. The problem they cause is that there usually isn't room for them so they either get impacted or cause a lot of pain and get cavities.
Reply:16-20. problems range if they are pushing against the other teeth. you might need to get them pulled if this happens
Reply:They can crowd you other teeth and cause problems below the surface of your gums. I am 18 and I'm having mine out in August. Your dentist will probably take x-rays in your late teens to determine how many, if any, need to be extracted. Some people are lucky enough to keep them while others are impacted and must be removed to prevent pain and other gum diseases down the road. It is better to have it done when you are young because you heal faster. They will knock you out and the whole procedure will take a couple of hours. They will give you pain medication for the next couple of days. Hope this helps!
Reply:with very few exceptions, everyone has wisdom teeth. when they begin to grow out and become exposed like your other teeth is an individual thing. some happen very young, when you get your first "adult" teeth. some never come in (become exposed).
if you have enough space in your jaw for the extra teeth and they grow in straight, you may not have any problems at all. If your jaw is small the wisdom teeth may cause crowding of your other teeth as they grow in, making your other teeth begin to turn, or get pushed back into your jaw line or forward. this can make keeping your teeth clean difficult. it can also be painful.
the worst case is if they become impacted. this means they grow more or less at an upward angle, running into the molar next to it and pushing the other molar out of place over time...this can cause damage to both teeth, cracking of the enamel and also substantial pain.
in general, unless they come in straight and cause no crowding, they are removed as a precaution, unless they have already caused problems, in which case they are removed to prevent additional damage and to eliminate the associated pain.
Reply:First, I am NOT a dentist. The age varies for everyone, but the possibility of getting them is around mid to late teens I think. Some may not ever get them. Some may get lucky and they come in nice and straight. Some may have them be "impacted"[a term I heard a DDS use]which is sideways, and have to have them removed. I was lucky and unlucky. Mine came in nice and straight. But, there just wasn't enough room for them and they were pushing all the rest of my teeth out of alignment. After the cost of braces, I just couldn't have that happen so I ended up having all 4 of mine pulled. But, I was lucky that I had a great DDS and the "worst" one's procedure took all of 15 minutes or so in the chair and no swelling at all afterwards.
