Wisdom teeth - what's the status of yours?

UPDATE: I had two removed today. I decided against general anesthesia, because of cost and not being able to eat half the day (I get really bad low blood sugar) and the dentist really didn't want to do any of the teeth but he agreed to do the two that weren't impacted. It wasn't that bad, really. Yes the pulling and cracking noise was a little disconcerting, but I sucked it up and I'm proud. And, GOOD NEWS: the dentist said I did so well that he's willing to do the impacted ones without general. I'll be saving 600 bucks. It's still $1400, but $1400 is better than $2k. My next appt. is four weeks from today.

I need them removed but I have no health insurance and I can't afford it out of pocket because I have my college and other bills to pay for...so they're growing in and I can't do anything about it.

Mine haven't come on yet *knock on wood*, but when they do, I'm probably going to have to get them taken out.

Had mine out this past April (2012). They caused me so much pain, so even tho it cost me about $1300, I was happy to get rid of them. My oral surgeon was amazing, I had very little pain and actually was able to carefully eat a meatball with my noodles for dinner that night, even tho they advise no solids at first I had a pretty quick recovery.

Gone gone gone, many years ago (I'm 34 now, had them out when I was in 7th grade). Mine were impacted and would never come in, only just cause extreme pain... so had them removed early.

Had mine pulled quite some time ago.

My top wisdom teeth are still in my mouth. The bottoms however, never existed. The buds were never there for them, or my molars.
08/13/2012
I was told I would never have them, the never showed up on any x-rays I had.

It stays that way my mouth isn't big enough for all the teeth I have now

havent come in thank God! but i would get them removed if they became a problem!

I had mine pulled since my dentist suggested it. I had them put me right out. When I woke up I was crying like a baby for my dad! Weird! Even though they never bothered me I'm glad to have had it over and done with years ago.

Shop around, I negotiated prices when I got mine removed in addition to a discount card that I purchased from my County Government office which was referred to me by my dentist.

I got mine out about a year ago. All four were impacted. I was in pain for about two weeks, but I got really good at making smoothies and milkshakes in that time
08/13/2012
I don't have any, or they haven't grown in yet.
08/13/2012
Mine were all impacted, and had to get removed but it was not that expensive.
08/13/2012
I have to get all four of mine removed ughhhhhhhhh
08/13/2012
Had them out, not a major issue too.
08/13/2012
I had them removed when I was in high school. They had to knock me out.
08/13/2012

Cool! Hopefully you have insurance.. otherwise it's really expensive! It's worth it though for your health.

I had mine pulled when I was younger. They were growing in horizontally and really deep down near the bone. They were pushing my bottom teeth and causing them to shift. Since I've had braces twice, I didn't feel like having them a third time to re-straighten my teeth so they were pulled when I was 15.

even tho mine hurt sometimes ill be keeping them for awhile because i have no dental insurance

They're out. They grew in so much I actually had to have them pulled. And stayed awake for it lol
01/09/2013
Removed.

I was born with only three because I'm a genetic anomaly/more evolved than most folks XD. The bottom two are out - nitrous oxide helped me get through that procedure as a teenager. The top one is still in and doesn't bother me - it's fully grown in like a regular tooth. My new dentist wants to take it out but it might just be fine

They were removed YEARS ago.
