I am 29 years old and my wisdom teeth havent come in yet. What are some symptoms I may experience when they do decide to come in? I'm not sure but, I think it may be happening, I want to hear from others what the signs are. Thanks.

Headaches/jaw aches and soreness of the molars. Of course, you may never have an issue with your wisdom teeth if you haven't had any problems so far.
Some people have actually have them grow in just like regular molars and don't even know they are wisdom teeth. Other people never get any... they don't ever develop fully or erupt through the gums at all.
Mine were impacted because I have a fairly small mouth. They never surfaced because they were trying to grow under my other molars. The dentist saw them through xray and advised that I have them removed surgically before they effected my other teeth. I had that done when I was nineteen.

ANGELINA,
HERE'S SOME INFO FOR YOU, WHAT HAS YOUR DENTIST SAID ABOUT YOUR WISDOM TEETH AT 29 Y.O.?
Wisdom teeth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Wisdom teeth are third molars that usually appear between the ages of 17 and 24 (although they may appear when older, younger, or may not appear at all). They are commonly extracted when they affect other teeth—this impaction is colloquially known as "coming in sideways."
Wisdom teeth are an example of a vestigial structure.[1] Some argue that recent changes to softer diets which cause less wear on the teeth may be causing the third molars to be less useful, and, in fact, problematic in many humans.[1] Alternatively, it is possible that wisdom teeth were useful when it was common for humans to lose several teeth to decay by the age when they appear.[2] Most people have four wisdom teeth, but it is possible to have more or fewer. Absence of one or more wisdom teeth is an example of hypodontia. Any extra teeth are referred to as supernumerary teeth.[2][3]

A big majority of Wisdom teeth never do come in, usually because there isnt room in the mouth. Generally if you do have them and they havent erupted, probally not a bad idea to have Oral Surgeon remove them. They can be a constant source of infection.

When my wisdom teeth started coming in I was about 19 maybe 20. I could feel one of them trying to push through. I went to the dentist and had them all pulled. It wasn't a very good experience. yuck...

My sisters wisdom teeth came in when she was about fifteen. She felt her gums starting to feel fleshy and sore. She had them taken out and had to eat pudding for a week or so ....hope everything works out!

Sorry :( The teeth fairy won't come decide on it up due to the fact that it is too gigantic and heavy. The teeth fairy can simplest take small enamel due to the fact that she may be very small and does not cross to the health club.
