Question 1

will my wisdom teeth are coming in make my teeth crowd?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Generally, there is enough room;  if not, discomfort or pain is more likely because the positioning is wrong.

Question 2

what should i do if my wisdom teeth are coming in?

Accepted Answer

Is it Causing Pain?: The best thing to do is to visit your dentist. Third molars erupt  at approximately  age 18-21. At age 45, if this question is referring to you, it  means it didn't have adequate room to erupt if you still have complete set of dentition. If your 2nd molars are missing, it can be a blessing especially if it is erupting in a proper or acceptable position.

Question 3

how do you know if your wisdom teeth are coming in?

Accepted Answer

Occasional pressure: Often times wisdom teeth erupt in the mouth with painlessly but if they are impacted, crowded or not in their proper place, they cause pressure or pain at the back of the mouth just behind all the other teeth. Most of the time, they come in at the age of 15 - 18 years but can come later too. A panoramic xray of the mouth can tell the proper positioning of the teeth.

Question 4

what can you do for pain when your wisdom teeth are coming in?

Accepted Answer

See your dentist: Pain from wisdom teeth may mean that they are coming in on a slanted angle and putting pressure on the area/other teeth. Or there may simply not be enough space for all of your teeth.  See your dentist.

Question 5

what's the definitive way to determine if my wisdom teeth are coming in?

Accepted Answer

Pressure feeling: A feeling of pressure or squeezing in area is usually felt.An x-ray is indicated.

Question 6

what should i do to help ease the pain when wisdom teeth are coming out?

Accepted Answer

Rinse: Warm salt water, keep area clean, see your dentist or oral surgeon.

Question 7

what exactly does it feel like when your wisdom teeth are coming through?

Accepted Answer

It varies.  Some: Patients experience no discomfort - in fact don't even know that they are erupting while others are in severe pain.  Best to be evaluated by your dentist.   Hope this helps.

Question 8

my wisdom teeth are coming in..how should i approach this without too much pain?

Accepted Answer

See a dentist: Have a dentist evaluate your wisdom teeth and mouth to determine if you have room for this (these) tooth/teeth.  Wisdom teeth take a long time to erupt into position, and they can be quite uncomfortable.

Question 9

my wisdom teeth are coming out and it is so painful. is there any way to reduce the pain?

Accepted Answer

OTC pain meds: The pain meds will help you get through the day or night until you get to see your dentist for an evaluation. The teeth in question may have to be removed.

Question 10

why do my cheeks hurt when my wisdom teeth are coming in slowing? and my wisdom teeth are on top

Accepted Answer

Muscles/tissues: Your upper wisdom teeth have to push trough the gum tissues which connect to your cheeks. Next to these tissues are your facial muscles. They wrap from the side of your head under your jaw and inside to parts of your mouth and throat. The pain can radiate to many places. See the Oral Surgeon for tx. options. It is possible than your lower ones are moving into place as well. Best of luck.
