my mom never had wisdom teeth so my greatest source of knowledge for various adult life scenarios just has no experience with something I’m dealing with and I’m stuck with google of all things

#the left ones are erupting #and they don't hurt aside from like. slightly sore gums where the tooth is poking through #so like. is it okay #I saw a dentist two months ago and he didn't say anything about it #do I just let it wait until July when I see the dentist again and then ask about it?#do I NEED to get them out??#I've had oral surgery before and I'm really not a fan #why is it so difficult to have a human body #I don't know how to deal with this I haven't dealt with a tooth poking out since the last oral surgery #(one of my adult teeth didn't come down so I needed the surgery to attach a tiny chain to it and then the orthodontist slowly pulled it down #via like elastic tied to the tiny chain or something)#it's just very frustrating that my mouth is arguably the part of my body that I practice the most consistent self-care on #ie I've literally never not brushed twice a day in my whole life #and yet it still brings me trouble and pain #it's frankly rude
