Gum tissue growth: Your gum tissue is thinly covering your wisdom teeth. Every now and then it thins out to the point of exposing the tooth. Then, it grows back over. you can certainly have them extracted. In fact, it is probably the prudent thing to do. It is possible to develop a gum infection in the area if the situation continues.

Wisdom teeth: Gum tissue infected and swelling around partially impacted wisdom teeth. Ask your General Dentist for the best wisdom tooth specialist, an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, in your area. Please see Oral Surgeon before your chronic problem becomes an acute problem.
