Do you even evolution, bro?
For most, the third molars are a vestigial organ, like the appendix, that has lost it's usefulness.
I don't believe in the prophylactic removal of all wisdom teeth. I only suggest removal of third molars that are not properly erupted, infected with caries or pericoronitis, or impossible to clean for the patient.

Since there are dentists here, is there a such thing as dental anxiety?
I seriously get freaked out with people putting their hands in my mouth. It almost gives me a panic attack.
Im serious. I feel like a baby, but I avoid the dentist for this reason.
Would I sound like a junkie asking for gas?
Btw, who's a good dentist in BR that won't screw me?
