See Oral Surgeon: See the Oral Surgeon for evaluation and treatment options. Sounds as if they need to come out. You may have decay and / or infection . Good Luck.

Specializes in Pain Management

See a dentist: When wisdom teeth cause problems or bad odor they need to come out. If you are experiencing pain, swollen gums,unpleasant smell, 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.
