Wisdom tooth deciding to come through at 36 with picture

And I’m in agony, obviously calling the dentist in the morning but I know they won’t be able to do anything, it needs to come out. I’ve had only one wisdom tooth ever come through and it was impacted and gave me abscesses and so much pain, it did eventually come through. This one though from xrays was pointing towards my back molar, so on its side pretty much and now a hole has appeared alongside that molar where it’s trying to erupt. Anyone else had issues like this ?

Yeah, mine came through when I was 50 🙄🙄🙄 It was at an angle, leaning against the tooth in front. I had it taken out. Good luck with yours!

Mine came through around 22. I remember they were very painful and it took ages. I only had one removed as I already had room due to teeth removed earlier for over crowding and braces. I’m thankful for them now as i lost bottom molar teeth in my 20’s

50? Wow ! I’m so pissed off really thought the others wouldn’t bother and now I’m worrying about the top ones

I think that’s what they were originally for, because we would’ve lost the molars due to bad hygiene etc so the wisdom teeth came through to replace them

Don’t worry. Only one of mine came through…
