    My wisdom teeth are coming in on just one side. They have been pushing through for a while but now they are REALLY coming in and they hurt really bad. I dont have the money for a dentist to pull the right now and probably not for a while....so I have just been using my pain pills and some anbesol (sp?) but my question is whether or not this could possibly make my teeth crooked or something. I know that these wisdom teeth dont have alot of room back there to come in, so will my teeth shift if I dont get them pulled? Thanks

    The reason why your wisdome teeth hurt is because they're growing in crooked (I got my wisdomes removed in highschool... I had 3, it was a bitch). I would suggest that you borrow the money from someone or find the money to get to the dentist... your teeth will get crooked, and you're in for a whole long time of pain if you don't get it fixed....

    I didn't get them fixed because I have so totally scared of dentists. they hurt me every once in a while since 7 (!!!!!) YEARS. And I have 4 of them. sometimes it's so bad I can't open my mouth properly. Just to warn you. I plan to get them out this summer though. with some medication that makes me fall asleep during the procedure.

    If your teeth are already crooked, I suggest to pull 'em as soon as ya can.. but if your teeth are ok.. and if ya have enough space at the back of the last molars.. it will be ok.. ya don't have to be afraid!
