Of course it hurts, but we can give you some anesthetic to block your pain nerves so that you don’t feel the pain temporarily.

Wisdom teeth refer to the third molar, which grows in the innermost part of the alveolar bone. Most people will erupt when they are 16-25 years old. Some wisdom teeth can grow normally and play a role in chewing, but most wisdom teeth grow crookedly, growing against the adjacent teeth. Some just pop up and then stop, and some do not come out at all and hide in the alveolar bone. They grow in various postures, and many people don’t have all four of them growing at the top, bottom, left and right.

Modern medicine generally believes that wisdom teeth are remnants of human evolution. Since wisdom teeth grow at the end of the alveolar bone, the alveolar bone of modern humans has degraded to varying degrees in length, width, and strength due to the increasingly refined diet, resulting in the inability to provide enough space for the wisdom teeth to erupt. In this way, when wisdom teeth erupt, they often cause ectopic eruption and impaction due to insufficient space; in addition, the degeneration of the wisdom teeth themselves can also lead to insufficient number of eruptions, asymmetric eruption, etc. These eruption abnormalities coupled with difficulties in cleaning and prevention often lead to clinical manifestations such as wisdom tooth pericoronitis, dental caries of wisdom teeth or adjacent teeth, periodontitis, pulpitis and other diseases, causing severe pain. Therefore, it is recommended that wisdom teeth with abnormal or asymmetric eruption be removed as early as possible.

This is a picture of a wisdom tooth being pulled out. It’s bloody. You say it hurts or not. Spending money to pay for it is probably what it means.
