Wisdom tooth
I suddenly have a wisdom tooth trying to come out in bottom-left side & I'm having problems in opening my mouth big.
Moreover, I feel that it's not coming out in line with other teeth. Is this a problem to worry about? To I need consultation?

Visit your dentist who would in all likelihood take an x Ray or an opg to find out the exact position of the offending tooth and depending on the situation would advice you as to weather it would require surgical removal or only observation till further symptoms appear.

Definitely u need a consult.. This happens when there is no space for d tooth to come out.. If left untreated can cause problems in d adjacent molar.. And also ur joint near d ear which helps to open your mouth, can b affected.

Hello ,
Wisdom tooth is the last tooth to erupt in oral cavity . And sometimes due to lack of space it gets impacted with in the bone . Which is causing u limited mouth opening and in future u might develop joint problem which is near ear . Consult a dentist ASAP and get it removed .

Yes, you have to visit a dentist, from your complaint it looks like it is impacted,only permanent solution is to surgically remove it.
