I still haven’t gotten any wisdom teeth, and I really hope that I’ll never get any. OK, more wisdom could always be useful, but I don’t have any room for more teeth…
Mine grew at a 90 degree miss angle. Had to chop them in four and pull the pieces out one by one. Went back to the metal workshop the next day; the sound was just the same as at the dentist.
I just went and brushed mine because I have one that has a giant crater and is getting pulled as soon as possible next month. The junk hurts like the dickens.
I had room for all of mine when they finally grew i at like age 28. They eventually came out (along with almost all of my teeth) following a head on collision with an uninsured motorist in which I cracked my jaw on the steering wheel (no airbag). Needless to say, there was a lot of shattering going on in my mouth that day. Fortunately I was unconscious for that part.
Also, this comic is creepy as hell. It disturbs me when I look at it.
Good work, Chris. =D
Mine are still in. Dentist said I can keep them forever. He offered surgery to remove the flaps of excess gum partially covering the, but I don’t want surgery I don’t need.
Kind of a funny coincidence that you put this comic up the day after I had mine cut out.
Also, @Chuck: those flaps of excess gum can harbor all sorts of nasty infections. That’s the reason my dentist recommended that I have mine removed (I actually went to see him in the first place because I’d contracted such an infection).
Please be careful not to disturb essential wiring when using this access.
Had mine out just after arriving at college; 2 weeks out of classes sitting around the apartment having daymares on the codeine, ugh.
Sister-in-law had hers out, destroyed her lip for a promising flute career (cut a nerve).

they broke out all four at once and i was out of school for a month.
you could say the whole procedure made me dumber than the other kids.
I still have mine too!

I guess if I get an infection I an get mine removed.
