wisdom teeth
hi so i am a 17Y. as u can see on the red circle i have a wisdom tooth but for some reason it doesn’t hurt and still under the gums but the pink circled one is fully grown but the pink circled one hurts the most and always gets infected my dentist said its pericoronitis but since its fully grown from x-ray pov i heared about this laser procedure called Operculectomy since i don’t wanna remove my teeth so i just wanted to ask if its possible but its the 4time it got infected and the tooth before the pin circled one started paining like a toothache extreme pain so idk , i never really visit the dentist a-lot since i have perfect teeth. but i wanted to ask online before going to a dental hospital.. thanks. ( if need photo of teeth lmk)
