Hi. It doesn't hurt, but I'm scared it will in the future.
Background:
have known this poky thing was there for 10 years, BUT it was under lots of gum. It developed after I had braces. I asked the ortho if it would cause me problems in the future. He said not to worry about it.
Now, 10 years later, it's poking out of the gum. It's hard, pointed, and white.
My wisdom teeth grew in three years ago. Did they crowd and push out this tooth's root?
Is this bad? What can be done? Will my tooth die?
I lightened the picture so you could see better.
Edit: I still have my wisdom teeth. top only.
