I don't like getting teeth pulled out. Cause of all the bleeding and the swelling. Has anyone had their wisdom teeth pulled out yet? Do they knock you out? Numb you?

I guess in some cases, that's possible? ![]() learn something new everyday. |

So obviously my wisdom teeth must have been growing even BEFORE I turned 15. So yes, it's possible to take out your wisdom teeth before you're 16 or whatever. Just because someone says they're taking out their wisdom teeth or already did, doesn't mean the wisdom teeth have actually erupted past the gums. It could just mean they're getting it surgically removed...as in they're going to dig in there (Ugh, makes me look forward to tomorrow ![]() And it's best to take them out before you get "old" 'cause there will be less complications and it'll heal better. Just thought this might answer some questions. Oh and yeah, you know your wisdom teeth are growing when your dentist takes X-Rays. Fun fun. |

No one is saying that it's impossible for someone to have surgery before 15. Don't be ridiculous. Do you know what words I was using? "Growing past the gums", "" and "erupt" doesn't tantamount to saying it's impossible to have wisdom teeth before the age of 15. Again, a ridiculous assumption from you not reading correctly. You're not answering any question I didn't know before. Thanks... for pointing out the obvious. |

The words "coming out" and "wisdom teeth out" sounded like you meant TAKING them out, not having them ERUPT past the gums. I'm sorry if I made "ridiculous assumptions". Don't hate me. Sheesh. Oh and thanks for the sympathy. I have two big holes in my gums, a huge chipmonk cheek, and pain. Yup, I'm definitely having fun over here. |

Sounds like "erupt" was used endlessly to me. QUOTE I get different numbers from different sites. lol. very confusing.
QUOTE and if they erupt it is usually between 17-21 years old sourceQUOTE Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars are the last teeth to erupt. This occurs usually between the ages of 17 and 25. sourceQUOTE Wisdom teeth are third molars that usually appear between the ages of 18 and 20 (although they may appear when older, or fail to appear at all). source![]() edited QUOTE They are called "wisdom teeth" because they usually appear during a person's late teens or early twenties, sourceQUOTE These teeth typically appear between the ages of 17 to 26. sourceQUOTE They are called wisdom teeth because usually they come in when a person is between 17 and 21 years or older, during what has been called the "age of wisdom." sourceas you can see... 15 doesn't begin the 'wisdom age', that's why i was suprised. |
