Hello! A few years, I had my one upper wisdom tooth out but left my two bottom wisdom teeth as they have not bothered me at all. My dentist of many years retired and I am going to a new dentist this week and I am so worried he will yell at me and say I'm silly for not having the lower wisdom teeth out. I've been to other dentists and oral surgeons before having my 1 wisdom tooth extracted and they were so horribly rude about the fact that I'm afraid to have my lower wisdom teeth out. Since having those out can possibly cause nerve damage and I'm older (early 30s) in terms of still having wisdom teeth, I've felt that it's best to leave well enough alone. Those wisdom teeth do not bother me and as I have a phobia of having them extracted, I've felt OK leaving them in. But when these dentists are yelling at me, it's so upsetting. My dentist who retired was so nice and understanding about it. I'm just so worried about going to this new dentist and what he'll tell me.
