• There have always been conflicting opinions about
  wisdom teeth. While dentists suggest having to
  take them out, there are some people who believe
  that it really isnt necessary. After all, they
  dont cause you harm!
• Unfortunately, dental pain is something we all
  dread. A very common reason to visit the dentist
  is to treat the Wisdom Teeth and the pain and
  fear of dealing with the wisdom teeth. Lets
  remember that even with the best of dental
  hygiene, wisdom tooth problems such as swelling
  and infection are unavoidable.

When should I get them out?

• An X-ray will show when the extra molars are
  causing damage to surrounding teeth, eventually
  leading to pain. Sometimes, the X-Ray can show
  other conditions as a result of wisdom teeth.
  Some of them are listed here 
• Cysts around the new teeth. This could lead to a
  damaged jaw and damaged nerves
• Untreated problems with wisdom teeth can lead to
  sinus pain
• Sometimes, tissue around the area can swell
  leading to inflamed gums
• Cavities caused due to bacteria growing in the
  teeth spaces
• Impacted wisdom teeth usually happen with
  crowding of other teeth.

When should I get them out?

• Regular dental check-ups are essential for
  complete dental hygiene. Sometimes, the wisdom
  teeth do not show any signs of damage or
  infection, thus regular check-ups ensure these
  problems are tackled at the earliest. 
• While some people do not experience any symptoms,
  some do experience mild to severe pain. So if
  youre experiencing any pain in your jaw, talk to
  your dentist. They will be able to assess your
  wisdom teeth. In most cases, an X-ray will help
  them understand the problem, rule out major
  concerns or maybe refer you to a specialist if
  needed. 
• For impacted wisdom teeth, the dentist will look
  at the shape of your mouth and the position of
  your teeth to make a decision. The age of the
  patient plays a role too.

They are just wisdom teeth, so why should you
have them removed?

• Sometimes, people simply dread any surgical
  procedure. So, if you are still not ready to part
  with your molars, the best thing you can do is
  schedule an appointment with an expert in the
  field.
• Also, if the requirement for wisdom teeth removal
  isnt immediate, you can wait several months to
  see if things change before making your decision.
  But if you have pain or notice swelling or a bad
  odour near your back teeth, it may be time for a
  second look.
• A visit to the dentist at least twice a year is
  crucial to your overall oral health, for
  cleanings and check-ups and general treatment. If
  youre experiencing any dental issues, make an
  appointment with your dentist.
