Technically, you only NEED them out if they're infected or ruining you're teeth's allignment.

I have to get my wisdom teeth out in two days! And the have to come out because they are going to push into the base of my other teeth making things worse. I was looking for an article to make me feel less anxious but this just made me feel worse! Is there any article that can reassure me?? Please respond!




 Hey girl, take a deep breath. Lots and lots of people get their wisdom teeth out and are just fine. The doctors know what they're doing, and aside from a li'l swelling, you probably won't have any problems at all. If you're worried about the anesthesia, they can do the procedure without putting you completely to sleep. Talk to your doctor - he or she will be able to answer all of your questions. The cases in this article are the exception, not the norm. You'll be fine, girl.

Okay, some people do have some complications with this and I can totally agree with you guys to be kinda scared and freaked out. Think though, not many people have complications. You NEED to get them taken out too. Not everyone does get their wisdom teeth, if both your parents did you may get them. Even if both your parents didn't get them you still could. Everyone usually gets braces. Now it is the 21st century and kids want nice teeth. (So did I!) When your wisdom teeth grow in they push the teeth in your mouth so all the braces and everything you got was for nothing! Also wisdom teeth are like a large molar, they don't fit in your mouth right. They hurt as the try to push your teeth out of the way. Getting them out may be scary and a pain, but it is worth it. My older sister got them out. (She is fine and was fine!) She said you are sore but it was worth it. The wisdom teeth hurt her whole mouth. If you don't get your wisdom teeth out you can still have health problems!!!

i was wordering what is an appendices and if u have to take it out




Hey girlie,

The medical condition "appendicitis" is basically when your appendix becomes swollen. Your appendix is a "pouch" located at the beginning of your large intestine and, when it starts to swell up, doctors need to take it out so it doesn't burst. You might know you have appendicitis if you have pain in your lower right abdomen, it hurts worse when you walk/press on it, you experience fever-like symptoms, etc. But the pain is the #1 sign <3

Hey kjcoolie, who cares what they think? You know the real reason behind you getting braces and that's all that matters. Just think about how nice and straight your teeth are going to look, after you take your braces off and then everyone will be complimenting you. Hope this helps! Xoxo

Hey rubie, so your teeth may not be your most attractive feature right now, but think about other parts of your body you're proud of. Do you have pretty hair? How about long shapely nails? And don't forget things like your personality, intelligence and talents. We all have things were self-conscious about, but who has time to sit and dwell on negativity? Instead focus on the things you like about yourself. There's so much more to you than your teeth girly! Hope this helps! Xoxo

So, I need braces. Some of my teeth are twisted, and there's a gap between my two front-top teeth and they're crooked. (the gap feels HUGE). I'm nearly 15, I've NEEDED braces since I was 8, and my parents can't afford them. I'm very embarrassed, and when I laugh or smile, I feel that I have to cover my teeth. Is there anything I can do to "boost" my self and make me feel better? Thanks a ton, Ruby<3 Lynae P.

Don't be scared to get your wisdom teeth out! I'm 12 and got mine out (which is rare for a 12 year old to have them because your wisdom teeth will grow when you're around 17 and up). I had them removed a month ago and it didn't hurt at all! If they think you will have complications, they send you the to hospital to get them out. The chance of you dying is like 1 in a million. Besides, this procedure is preformed around 25,000 times a week or so in America!

I'm scared! I have to get Dental surgery, because my tooth will not come in. Well I have a consultation with the oral surgeon on wendsday and my orthodontist said that they are going to nock me out... I'm guessing he means give me anestisia well, I don't think that I have even been given anestisia before, so what's it like? And I have asthma so will the anistisia have any effect on that? I'm really scared because what they are gonna have to do is cut my gum attach something to the tooth then attach that to a chain then attach the chain to the wire in my braces...... I'm really scared! Please help!




Hey girl,

I recently got my wisdom teeth out, so I can totally understand what you're feeling! It's scary and way nerve-wracking...but it's something that has to be done to keep you healthy. To answer your first question, anesthesia sort of feels like taking a nap. They'll probably hook you up to an IV with a needle (I know, it sounds scary but it takes two seconds) and put some medicine in there...and then you'll get a little sleepy and before you know it, you'll be waking up in recovery. The whole process is seriously that easy! When you wake up, you'll feel tired and groggy so you'll probably want to sleep the rest of the day when you get home. Write a list of questions before your consultation (will anesthesia make me feel weird, will my asthma be a problem, what can I eat after surgery, etc.) to make sure you have everything covered before your surgery. It's normal to be nervous - it's not like we casually go in for dental surgery every day! But you will be FINE. This sounds like a routine surgery that they do all the time, so trust them when you ask questions and know they'll take care of you. And you'll be so glad to have this tooth sorted out!

I sweat a lot. There are always big sweat stains on my shirt by the end of the day. How can I stop sweating so much. It's making me very insecure usually I'm very confident. Pllleeeeaaasssseee help.




Hey girlie,

Try keeping a stick of deodorant in your locker at school! Sneak it into a purse or pocket, then touch up throughout the day. You could also try a clinical strength deodorant, which is designed for people who sweat more and need more protection. If that doesn't do the trick, ask your doc! Smile

I just got mine out a few days ago, and it's not as bad as this article states! Like all surgeries, there are risks, but during my consultation they made it perfectly clear that if anything bad happened, it won't be forever. (aka, bruised nerve with 4 month healing process. punctured sinus with 3 week healing process... etc) And I had no choice but to get them out, I'm 15 and all four were fully impacted already. I could feel the pressure from them against my other teeth several days before I got them out, and it hurt. SO it was preventing future problems, and problems I was having.
And the surgery itself is not scary at all! If you're like me, they'll give you gas first to keep you relaxed (mixed with tons of oxygen) and give you an IV and in less than an hour, you're waking up. All done.
So, for all those girlies who are scared, it's not bad at all! All you have to worry about is what kind of ice cream you get afterward. Smile

I got my wisdom teeth out a year and a half ago. I was terrified; I didn't know how great the chance was of having complications, but I thought the anesthesia might kill me. Obviously, I was fine, and it was a good thing for me that I got them out, because otherwise, the roots of my wisdom teeth would've strangled some of my nerves. Like any surgery, there are risks involved, but for me, it paid off.

Are you people serious with this? I totally agree with @lockettte221.. this is definitely something that should NOT have been posted. I had my wisdom teeth pulled in October and was perfectly fine. In this article you say that the anesthesia caused all of the complications. Sounds to me like this a problem with the anesthesiologist not doing their job correctly.. Wisdom teeth have nothing to do with this. All you are doing is scaring girls who have to have surgery. You are scaring people such as @geniuschick123, who now claims that she does not want to have her wisdom teeth pulled. Most of these girls will have to have their wisdom teeth pulled at some point in their life, and whenever their dentist or orthodontist tells them that, they will remember this article and be absolutely terrified. Way to go Girls Life, you have now scared thousands of girls. Good job.

GirlsLife, I think its really inconsiderate that you would tell girls this. These are only 2 people out of millions. Think of the other problems you could potentially have if not removed, such as cancer, cavities, nerve damage, or problems with the lips or mouth, and the pain of them growing in. Wisdom teeth surgery may be uncomfortable, even dangerous, but it is certainly "a smart move".

Hey girl, try on some moisturizing lotion. That will help a lot. The redness takes an hour or so to go away. I think by two hours, you'll be fine! If you have cover up, you could put a little on. That might help a bit too. Don't worry! =]

Hey girl,

 

People get their wisdom teeth out all the time, and most of them are fine. These cases are rare (but scary)! If you and your parents trust the doctor you're going to, you will probably be fine, but there is a chance (as with any procedure) of harm. Talk to your mom and doc about your fear -- you're probably not the first one to be scared, and they'll have answers to the technical questions of the surgery risks.

Hey girlie,

It's definitely good to get moving for 45 minutes a day! By doing it in multiple steps, you keep things interesting and mix it up. As long as you have fun, it'll be a great plan! You'll burn calories and will probably get toned, but try not to be disappointed if you don't lose lots of weight. Just focus on being as healthy as possible - the confidence in your bod will come with time! <3

Is this article designed to frighten us? I had mine removed a few months ago...and nearly everyone I know will have them removed. A majority of complications are not directly due to extraction of the teeth, but rather poor care afterwards. The fact is wisdom teeth removal is usually a smart choice...Brushing the back teeth thoroughly is already difficult, imagine more teeth back there. If extraction is recommended look into it, and get MANY opinions. As long as you trust the oral surgery center you intend to use and go in confident all should be well. The worst thing you could do is panic before going into surgery. Take it easy and if something strange goes on afterwards tell someone! Follow instruction to care for your mouth and you will avoid most of the complications completely. Let's try not to scare readers...simply keep them informed.

My brother got his out 2 years ago. He's fine. Last year I had to have 5 teeth removed while under anesthesia, one of which was a wisdom tooth. I don't think it's the teeth that are to blame, I think it's the anesthesia. Because honestly, I had to have that tooth taken out or else my 12-year molar wouldn't have been able to come in. 11,000 out of 5 million is only 22%. So 78% are fine, and the rest have mostly minor complications. Why don't we find out the statistic of dying under/right after anesthesia, and then compare that to the number of people who need it for other types of surgeries. Because let's face it, without the risk of anesthesia, some people would die anyway, and I'm not just talking about teeth here.

My older sister actually just got hers taken out this morning! So this sorta freaks me out, but she is fine right now. And my other older sister had hers taken two years ago and is fine. I think if you already had braces, wisdom teeth can mess up your new, perfect smile. So, you should get them taken out!

MOD!
i havent gotten my wisdom teeth out yet, but does everyone have to get them taken out? and why couldnt i just keep them? im so confused! :{




Nobody has enough room in their mouth for their wisdom teeth.  If they come in, which for some people they don't, then they're likely to cause you pain.  If you want to know whether or not you'll get them, check with your parents, it's generally the same for you as it was them.

Oh my God. This totally freaked me out; I am so hoping i don't get my wisdom tooth and that no one else dies from it. BTW, if anyone can answer this: Does everyone get their wisdom teeth?

I already had mine removed over the summer. It's not that bad except for the bits of pain you get afterward if you don't take meds at the right time. I remember fighting the anesthesia to see how long I could go. I went to blink and had my eyes closed for what I thought was maybe 20 seconds, but when I opened them again, the doctor said, "ok your done" I was like "!! Woah!!!"

I had my wisdom teeth out about 5 years ago. Yes, I was scared but I knew that it would have to be done. My wisdom teeth were coming in at an odd angle in my mouth. If the dentist would have let them be then it would have messed up everything braces had done for me. Sometimes having your wisdom teeth removed is necessary to have a beautiful smile Smile
