Wisdome teeth: When should I get them out?
Okay so ealier today i noticed that my wisdom teeth are coming in and my lower left wisdom tooth is showing about almost 2/4ths of the way but not completely. My lower right wisdom tooth is about to start uncovering itself but its there. I dont know about my top wisdom teeth because i feel no larg lumps like in my lower jaw. I'm 17 year old girl, so im about the age of getting my wisdom teeth.
Anyways my question is: when should i get them removed before they casue damage to my other teeth? My dentist said that i most likly should get my lower ones out but there not for sure about my tops (this they told me about a year and half ago). Like i said when i was explaining my lower left tooth is ABOUT 2/4ths of the way before being completely visible. When should i get them out? Should i get them out now or wait? Also i feel no tooth aching pain? People told me im suppose to feel pain or swelling of the gums? I dont have that.

Only if you are having problems with them.
A little info I think should be considered about this drug Versed ( Midazolam ) that is used for Sedation for many medical procedures..Sedation and General Anesthesia are not the same and quite a few people being given Sedation
think they are being given General Anesthesia!
There is simply no good or valid reason to ever purposely induce amnesia during a medical procedure. It is only a recent development in medical thinking that amnesia is somehow a "benefit" to the patient.
I feel that if people were aware of the effects of this drug they would Opt For Another Drug!
Erasing someones memory of what was done to them is wrong!!
In fact, many people who use Versed for " IV Sedation,Conscious Sedation" Twilight Sedation, during a procedure are Awake For The Entire Procedure but remember nothing, often Believing They Were "Out" the whole time.
Versed (Midazolam) is an amnestic. It is also commonly used for minor procedures like setting broken bones,colonoscopies,endoscopies, dental procedures like extractions,conscious sedation,twilight sleep, so that patients won't remember pain and discomfort.HOWEVER THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THOSE SENSATIONS WILL NOT BE EXPERIENCED!!!!Forgetting does not mean it did not happen!!
A note from an anesthesiologist
I agree that using midazolam alone in painful situations is wrong. I've heard people getting colonoscopies and screaming, and maybe they remember, maybe they don't.
A note I got from someone on Yahoo Answers who did have a bad experience..This is very disconcerting... My sister said she heard me screaming from the waiting room but assumed it wasn't me. When we left we heard another female patient screaming. I did a lot of research since your post, thanks so much for the info.
Here is a note from a Dentist Who uses Versed
I've used Versed 1000+ times during oral surgery procedures and I've never had a complaint. It's a miracle drug because it is safe and it causes you to not remember an unpleasant experience. My answer to him is isn't it better to have not experienced the pain than to have forgot it. No wonder you have had no complaints they have no memory of the procedure.....
There is a blog about this drug you may find interesting http://versedbusters.blogspot.com/2005/12/introduc...

Can there be considerable room at the back of the mouth area?
It's not necessary to have them drawn out. Particularly if they haven't exploded yet. It will likely be very painful when you get them out now simply because they cut them out surgically.
Allow them to are available in, after which decide whether they should be drawn. It's a LOT less painful this way, and you will really need them!

Get them out now. Later, will be worse when you get pain & swelling. Not to mention really bad headaches.
Source(s): I waited too long to get mine out, but I did.
