ereks mom Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 EK seems to be having wisdom tooth pain, but no wisdom teeth have come through yet. Her whole mouth is sore, even her tongue! She says it feels like there is a small, hard lump behind each of her back teeth, and the lumps hurt & itch at the same time. This started last week, and seems to have gotten a bit worse. I've had her take ibuprofen, and that helps some. EK will be 15yo in about 6 weeks. I think I remember starting to have wisdom tooth pain at about age 15. If your dc's wisdom teeth have come in, at what age was he/she when they started coming in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fshinkevich Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I did not get mine until I was about 19 or so, but I remember it hurt a lot and they ended up being impacted. OUCH! Hope EK feels better soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtroad Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Mine hurt all through my teen years. Finally in college, they realized they were not coming through... they were coming in at a 45degree angle under my molars... out they came! What a relief!

Vida Winter Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 You probably need to go to the dentist and get an x-ray. Our son got his out at about 14 or 15. :grouphug: Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Our orthodontist told us that if they need to come out it is better to do before they grow a full root. I would see your dentist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
