Hi in many people, wisdom teeth don't break through the gum and grow out ? or only part of them does. The reasons are multifactorial. This is more common in the lower jaw than it is in the upper jaw. The reason is usually that there isn't enough space for the tooth in the jaw. Wisdom teeth are usually only removed if they cause problems, or are likely to in the future. (pain, swelling etc.) wisdom teeth that don't break through (sometimes also called ?impacted? wisdom teeth) often don't cause any problems. But they sometimes lead to pain, swelling, tooth decay or inflamed gums. Impacted wisdom teeth may also push other teeth out of the way. Wisdom teeth that break through the gums may or may not cause problems too. In your case, please provide details and pain and other symptoms. Kindly attach the x-ray or pictures if available .it is important to get answers to these questions before having any wisdom teeth removed: let's connect over a call or text so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.
