I'm curious because I'd like to have mine removed. I was just at an orthodonic appt. this morning and the orthodontist said that some oral surgeons might recommend their removal while others wouldn't. I was thinking that mine are causing the crowding in my other teeth, but the orthodontist didn't seem to think so, although he wasn't 100% certain. But I understand there could be other problems associated with leaving the unerupted wisdome teeth in, such as problems with the nearby molars, infections, etc. Suze Fisher Lapdog Design, Inc.

My dog insists on taking dictation, but she's an atrocious speller. <g> BTW, , thanks for mentioning the issue with the periodontal ligament. I'll have to look into that. I do have a biological dentist and he recommended an oral surgeon to me, who is regrettably a 2 hour drive from me :-( But I'm sure he recommended him because he's compatible with biological dentistry.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Suze: Are you sure that I was responding to Chris? I thought I was responding to Lana Gibbons? I went to Onibasu for NN and I can't find my post. Maybe she cross-posted and I responded to another newsgroup. Would you mind sending me the thread offline to vspritchard@... so that it doesn't take up space on the newsgroup Anyway, of course there will be differing opinions...but if your teeth a crowding and hurting/causing pain to your other teeth, they should come and I would be most curious to the rationale for NOT doing it. Also, if any of the wisdom teeth emerge and break skin and then retreat for whatever reason...mine did this numerous times until I had them removed, depending upon what your state of health is during this period, this can set up the wisdom teeth for infection. Now a conventional dentist will likely not share this opinion and that is why I recommended a dentist from the IAMOT. vsp On 1/24/06, Suze Fisher <s.fisher22@...> wrote: > > >Depending upon how deep/strong your wisdom teeth roots are will determine > >your recovery.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 You were responding to Steph. I think it was who reponded to my post on the subject... Oh my, how confusing. -Lana On 1/24/06, S. Pritchard <vspritchard@...> wrote: > Suze: > > Are you sure that I was responding to Chris? I thought I was responding to > Lana Gibbons?

Supposedly there is no strong correlation between unerupted wisdom teeth and crowding of the other teeth, according to the Orthodontist I saw. When I look at my x-rays though, that's really hard to believe. Also, if any >of the wisdom teeth emerge and break skin and then retreat for whatever >reason...mine did this numerous times until I had them removed, depending >upon what your state of health is during this period, this can set up >the wisdom teeth for infection.
