My wisdom teeth tend to start coming thru every time I get stressed, which is very annoying. They'll never come thru properly, just cause me a lot of pain as they push against my gum for a few days. At the moment, the side of my face is swollen and it hurts quite a bit. I've tried bonjella, but does anyone have any other remedies. I'm hesitant to use painkillers as I'm supposed to be out tonight partying and will be having a few drinks!!
Thanks in advance ppl!!

You sound like you are probably at the age when most people have to address wisdom teeth issues. You will definitely need to see your dentist and have an x-ray to determine what is going on with them and whether or not you have an infection. If you have an infection, you will need antibiotics. Unfortunately, if you do have an infection over-the-counter medications won't be able to fully alleviate all of the pain. I would still suggest that you take something to reduce inflammation though.
Good luck

Well, just a while ago my wisdom teeth started growing in also, and while it can be annoying and painful... the side of my face hasn't swollen. I'm not sure about your teeth, but if the swelling and pain are severe i would suggest speaking with a dentist, because wisdom teeth can become impacted, which is where it is confined in the socket without room to grow out normally. your dentist will know more about what to do, and can help with pain.

Why Pull it out ? If It is not decayed Or Cracked like mine was just leave it in . the best time to pull a Wisdom Tooth is when something is wrong with it and the best person to know this is Your Dentist.
