If anyone can advise... god I'm about to get my own pair of pliers and try take it out! I didn't even know I didn't have all my teeth at 32 but am I reasonable to ring the dentist to check why it is causing me so much pain? Anyone know anything about wisdom teeth 🤣 it is causing pain all down the right hand side of my jaw.. can definitely feel it is only half a tooth a bit like when babies have a molar half through!

You'll need an x-ray. Mine came in awkward and is growing in the soft tissue at the back of my mouth. I've had to have a healthy tooth out because it was pushing it over. It's on the way to being fully through but the buggers coming out when I get the chance. Side ways on indeed.

Get some oragel. It'll help.

Call your dentist or 111 for an emergency appointment. Keep the area clean, you can get an interspace brush to help with the cleaning, you can use corsodyl mouthwash short term or warm salt rinses also. Paracetamol and ibuprofen to help with the pain.
