Wisdom teeth are a funny thing, and I don’t mean that in the literal sense. And if you think they add some wisdom to your being then you are very wrong. They are not even needed, and whether they were at one time or another is not important – they are like the tail bone of the dentistry world. The thing is though, the wisdom tooth doesn’t just come through and everything is all good. No, the wisdom tooth will come through a bit causing you pain and annoyance, but then will halt in its eruption.
