I've been thoroughly enjoying my new smile
On Saturday night I had a bit of a moment though, I was eating some crisps and felt a sort of scratch at the back of my mouth, I looked in the mirror, and saw the tip of a wisdom tooth
They did X-ray the wisdom teeth before I was braced in 2006, and just said they were fine and they'd leave them as they were, all 4 are slightly impacted, but they said it wasn't a problem.
I am making double sure I wear my retainer as close to 24 hours a day as possible to make sure my teeth don't move, but I'm really scared that this wisdom tooth will force my newly straightened teeth to shift, I'd be devastated if that happened
I think maybe I'll make an appointment with my regular dentist to see if she can check it out for me, but I know they won't remove wisdom teeth on the NHS anymore unless they decay or cause gum disease, so I don't think they're going to remove mine if they start to push on my other teeth.
I guess it's a case of wait and see
