No, not all wisdom teeth are impacted but when they are impacted they are more difficult to remove. Usually an oral surgeon will remove the wisdom teeth.

Not all wisdom teeth become impacted. Impacted teeth are harder to remove and usually involves general anastesia (you're asleep) whereas with a regular wisdom tooth they can do it with novacane and you're awake the whole time.

No not all wisdom teeth get impacted...but impacted ones are more difficult to remove. The oral surgeon broke two carbide drill bits trying to remove my husbands impacted wisdom teeth!! Good luck!!

HELLO,
EVERY WISDOM TOOTH ONE CAN GET IS NOT ALWAS IMPACTED AND THE ONES WHICH ARE IMPACTED MUST BE SURGICALLY REMOVED. THIS IS MORE DIFFICULT THAN SIMPLE EXTRACTIONS.
