Is it normal to get headaches, fever when wisdom teeth come in?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Possibly if...: If any of the teeth are infected, it might result in a fever. Headaches are more likely to occur with erupting wisdom teeth. However, in most cases, these two symptoms are probably unrelated. See a dentist to evaluate your symptoms from a dental standpoint and a physician, if necessary, regarding your headaches and fever.

Maybe: Wisdom teeth can be a contributing factor to many symptoms including headaches and a slight elevation in temps. Your dentist can advise you if your wisdom teeth are related to your headaches and fever, and if their removal is indicated or not.
