Tl;dr: do you still have all your wisdom teeth, or have you gotten rid of them?
I know some of you could care less about this topic, but I’m going to touch on it anyway because I’m different and I like to explore things that you guys won’t. Do you guys still have your wisdom teeth, or did you have to get them removed for some reason? It’s that hidden, special third molar in the back of your mouth (that helps with chewing) that’s extremely difficult to floss.
If this guy isn’t fully erupted, then it’s going to cause major problems, eventually. Most people have problems with their wisdom teeth and some are born with none at all. Genetics isn’t exactly on everyone’s side, so they either end up with 28 teeth, or 4 special 3rd molars that don’t properly erupt. However, some of you are lucky and end up with perfect teeth and fully erupted wisdom teeth. But that’s only a small percentage of people in the world, unfortunately.
Red flags of people with impacted wisdom teeth:
🚩Swollen gums
🚩Painful chewing
🚩Bad taste in your mouth
All these things come from wisdom teeth growing in vertically, horizontally, mesially, and distally.
