Because: they're so far back in your mouth, wisdom teeth may not come in normally. If you are experiencing pain, swollen gums, lymph nodes and it does not go away or if you find it difficult to open your mouth, you should see a dentist for evaluation, x-ray and wisdom teeth removal.

Infection: Most commonly in your age group - infection or decay. See an oral surgeon for assessment and recommendation.
