You may actually be able to keep these teeth for your entire life! Here are some signs that your wisdom teeth don't have to come out.Wisdom Teeth Come in NormallyOne common issue that leads to wisdom teeth removal is that they come in impacted. However, if your wisdom teeth erupted normally and didn't cause any issues with your back teeth, there may be no problem with them. You may not have any sensitivity or pain in your wisdom teeth or the gums around them. If that's the cause, there's no real reason to have them removed.You Clean them Correctly Wisdom teeth can become riddled with cavities because some people don't clean them correctly. They're so far back I the mouth that it can be difficult to thoroughly brush them and floss between them.
