Technically wisdom teeth are inherently problematic even if they dont cause crowding. They are far more likely than other teeth to get cavities and rot out. I never got any of mine removed until one of them went bad. I grew the rest of my teeth when fluoride levels were higher, but they lowered the levels before I grew my wisdom teeth so they arent as strong

The one going bad was way worse than the surgery to get them removed. But yeah the diet and restrictions afterward was shitty. The actual procedure wasnt bad at all, other than finding out that ground-out tooth smells exactly like Fritos
