Wisdom teeth removed by crazy dentist?
So I'm somewhat concerned about the dentist I just started going to, I went due to an emergency and he was the only person I could get into right away. Yesterday at my check-up he told me "that he doesn't like the looks of my wisdom teeth" and he wants to remove the remaining 3 teeth. I am 29, have had no problems with these teeth and I wasn't show my x-rays to see if they were impacted or not.
This guy is licensed to perform general dentistry only, but he wants to remove them himself, in his office on two seperate occasions. Is this normal practice, from what I hear this is not a procedure I want done using Novocaine.
Thanks!

Don't do it, it's a trap.
Other Replys:Do your wisdom teeth have cavities? Are they "in" or below the gum? If they are in your mouth they may be a source for cavities or may already have decay. If so they are a source for decay and infection. I do usually recommend that my patients have their wisdom teeth out because you do not want to be older having them out due to an abscess/ toothache because there is a higher chance for complications like jaw fracture etc. General dentists can perform wisdom teeth extractions if they choose too. You can opt to see an oral surgeon if that makes you more comfortable.
