2. A couple came out in my mid-twenties and I had them pulled
(not enough room)

The others are impacted. They never bother me, so I've left them alone.

4. not exactly just now getting them, but just now about to get one out
It hurts like a sonofabitch!! And the dentist refused to give me anything stronger than ibuprofen :(

Yeah, I should have had them out a long time ago...they came in when I was in my twenties (mid-thirties now), at least the upper ones...the bottom ones are impacted and probably can't be extracted without a great deal of trouble. I guess we'll see how it goes getting the rotten one out on Monday. It's been some seriously amazing pain, let me tell you....

5. I had mine out at age 23
Two had partially emerged. The other two hadn't broken through. I was getting headaches and pain at the back of my mouth so I had them taken care of. It is probably a good thing that I had them out then because a few months later, our company switched insurance to a plan that covered that procedure poorly.
