my son wants to have his wisdom teeth pulled. he is at old Folsom. i quote: "my wisdom teeth are coming in and even though they don't really hurt they are making my teeth crooked. nothing too terrible but enough that i want them out.
so i go in and they give me the full check up. i was surprised. all first rate equiptment and fairly nice dentists. i get the full exam. no cavieties, how about that? but my wisdom teeth are buried in both nerve sections, between the gum and the jaw bone."

i remember reading someone's mother was having a personal hell because of something like this. should i advise him not to do it or do i tell him to go on his gut and if things don't feel right, don't do it? i'm worried. i'm a nurse and i haven't been to the doctor in YEARS. i don't trust anyone with my health but myself but please, i don't need to get tested Spirit.......

PTO, i need advice!
