I am 17 years old, and my dentists have told me (and I've seen it in the x-rays) that I have all four of my wisdom teeth. However, they don't hurt, and they have not grown through my gums....meaning I can't see them in the mirror. Can I get them out even though they haven't grown out of my gums yet?

Some people remove their wisdom teeth, even if they don't have problems. I chose to keep mine. I've had no problems with them.

It's a matter of personal choice. You could ask your dentist. I believe that they can remove the wisdom teeth, even below the gum line.

If they aren't bothering you, why would you go through the trouble of having them pulled??

i just got mines taken out last week...and mines didnt grow out...i didnt even feel them

i took them out cuz they were pusshing my bottom teeh and were messing them up...

thats why i took them out

even if they aren't growing in they can still be taken out. However it is going to hurt more to remove them if they haven't grown in because they are impacted.
