Answer 1

Yes, you could. Some other signs of your wisdom teeth coming in are:

* Swelling
* Infection
* Pain
* Headaches
* Earaches
* Restricted mouth opening

I'd go check with a dentist.

Answer 2

The last teeth to erupt are the "wisdom teeth" or third molars, which are usually delayed until the late teens or early twenties. These teeth often come in crooked or "impacted" against the second molar and may have to be extracted. They are no great loss.
Please see the webpage for more details on Wisdom teeth.

Answer 3

yes it might b
when my first tooth came out it was so pain full it came out in 2 months
but my second tooth took 2 years to come out
the gum used to errupt for somedays then it usd to b fine
finally i went to the doc and he found that the tooth was not in alignment with the other teeth and was struggling to come out
so he cut the flesh over the teeth and finally it came out

Answer 4

if it feels like there's a tooth and you have all the other ones, i'd say it's the wisdom tooth.
