A member asked:
What are the chances of my wisdom tooth erupting to take the place of my lower second molar if i extracted it? i'm 35 yrs old.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to see xray: At your age, if the wisdom tooth has not erupted it is probably horizontally impacted, making the chances of your scenario zero. Restore the second molar if you can
