I still have not gotten my wisdom teeth removed, but I am thinking about doing it soon because it seems they give me headaches. I think they are pushing against my other teeth. I am seeing my dentist soon but does this happen with any of you?

I think you mean impacted. Yes they can cause pain.

No, be careful of what the dentists tell you, they love to take out wisdom teeth. My dentist told me I would definitely need all 4 wisdom teeth to come out. that's been about 25 years ago. I had some swelling and pain for years while one came in, now that it's all the way in, it's fine. I am having pain now while another one is cutting through. I have the other two all the way in , and they are fine. I've never heard of wisdom teeth giving people headaches, but I'm not sure. I wouldn't get them out unless you are sure they are what's causing problems.

I still have one wisdon tooth that is impacted my dentist said if it doesn't bother me, I should leave it alone I'm now 49 , i've never had any problems with it, however back in 1998, I had an upper wisdom tooth pulled out, as it was impacted in my sinuses, boy did that ever hurt when he was taking it out. I say if it don't hurt, leave them alone.
