...it cos judging fm x-ray, it will cause temporary to permament damage on nerves to my left side of face. Gum covers 70% of it and that's the area that decay. The 30% exposed has been kept well. Dentise adv only if it gets worse, then need to consider to take out the one before it, let the wisdom teeth come out a bit more so lesser risk of damaging the nerve....where shall i seek 2nd opinion? Is it feasible to have the exposed area drilled, so that I can at least keep the 'leftover' of the wisdom teeth clean to avoid surgery that will damage the nerve???

Seek a 2nd opinion from another oral surgeon, perhaps even get a 3rd. There is often a risk when removing any impacted wisdom tooth of nerve damage.

Get a few opinions so you can make an informed choice.
I hope you find a really good dental surgeon who can do a brilliant job and you end up with zero problems!
