I had the exact same issue. It was a pain in the arse.

this is my first time seeing an x-ray of a teeth, it looks horrifying

That’s how mine looked. I had them extracted by an Army dentist. Do not recommend.
GamblingIsForLosers on
Yeah it happens a lot
GhostofAugustWest on
I had the same issue, but it was upper and lower. Had to have 2 surgeries to remove all 4.
rodrios5 on
Been there, done that. All four (top and bottom). Had to have them all surgically removed. Fun times….

Ouch

Also, it’s human-body-amazing how long teeth really are. FASCINATING.

Pretty normal actually
Bulky_Specialist9645 on
Yeah, they’re impacted. Gotta get them out ASAP and it’s a process. That’s how mine were
_mnr on
Good luck with their removal. Worth taking a day or two off work after their extraction

I had them too and got them removed

I have one of mine horizontal too! Is it also barely visible out of the skin shell thing?

Mine were exactly the same.

I had 2 on the right side of my lower jaw. The operation took about an hour, and recovery was pain. Had a huge swelling the size of a grapefruit (didn’t think of putting ice on it in the beginning).

I had all my wisdom teeth do that to me when I was in high school. I have perfect teeth, so they wanted to make sure they got removed right away. They said a 30-minute procedure, I was done in 10mins. I was so loopy off of the drugs, I pulled my mom’s steering wheel while she was driving me home, thinking of it as a joke. Then, when I got home, I laid on the floor and rolled around for about 5-10mins. Just because it felt like the right thing to do at the time.

Same. It’s a pain in the ass. Food is forever getting trapped in them.

These wisdom teeth are not very wise ðŸ¤ðŸ˜˜ x

congrats, you’re in the 9%.

Had the same issue + infected cyst holding the teeth and slowly breaking my jaw. I had all 4 removed surgically
solidshakego on
I only have one like that. Didn’t get it removed because it costs too much. No pain though
DespairTraveler on
I recommend removing them. Mine were exactly like that and at some point one of them started scratching nearby tooth, which led to infection. Had to remove them both.
TeenyGremlin on
Oh, that’s how mine look. I have no pain, no issues, and never had a single infection. I’m in my early 30s now and that hasn’t changed a bit. Luckily mine have always stayed below the bone, though, and never broken the gum’s surface. I’m glad I refused the dentist that kept trying to push me to get them removed pre-emptively when I was in my early 20s. If I need to get them out later because an actual issue happens, that’s cool, but I’d rather a necessary surgery in a rush than a surgery that may never have been needed in the first place.
japspre on
Get well soon!
Shadowtheuncreative on
One of the two I have has also grown like that.
Boonie_Fluff on
Me too. Recovery from extraction was smooth on my left side, my right side took like 3 months because a stitch wouldn’t fall out
Omegamoney on
All four of mine are, I require help asap
tuppel on
Had that, both upper and lower. But only on one side. Spat so much coagulated blood and looked like a chipmunk in the days after they were surgically removed.
Dynamic_Dog_Daddy on
You better go quickly…
I had to have my bottom two broken in half before extraction, with just a local anesthesia. I got to see the bone and blood as I was laying back tasting copper lol
liselisungerbob on
Had the same ones, got them removed at my uni dentistry on local anaesthesia. The doctor gave a lesson to a few students there while removing my tooth lol
WhatWasReallySaid on
I never had to get any of mine out, there is actually room for another tooth behind them lol.
Bjau on
Had 4 like that
SoftLavenderKitten on
Same as mine!
Mine looks just like that. Only have two but they are horizontal
assassbaby on
the crazy part about any surgery that requires anesthesia and you go to sleep is that you dont even realize your falling asleep.
i was so nervous when i got all 4 wisdoms removed and also during my colonoscopies and its really all for nothing because the anesthesiologist tells you to attempt to relax and count down from 10…and bamm your asleep and bamm your awake and its all over haha.
GibsonBluesGuy on
It called impacted and it’s pretty common. Mine were like that. Takes a little extra digging to get them out but it’s not a big deal.
FamiliarTaro7 on
Yeah….that’s what they do, and why we need them removed. Not interesting at all.
