Is That Wisdom Tooth Bothering you?
Wisdom teeth extractions are really a pain in the behind. I remember when mine was really bugging me when I was young. This type of tooth extraction really vary from person to person. The majority of patients, however, come with symptoms of impacted third molars… which only means that your wisdom tooth is buried underneath your gums or at least partially. This happens when the entire tooth, or part of the tooth has not erupted from the gums as the rest of your teeth. You may not be able to see where the wisdom teeth at all in some cases.
