Kk, so my wisdom teeth are starting to come out (and it hurts like omg O_O). I'm concerned about them, according to some, altering the shape of the face or jaw to make them wider, since they're big and might push your other teeth and your jaws.
I already have a wide face (square/roundish? :/) and I definitely don't want it any bigger. :|

Does anybody know? Please and thank you~ <3

Not your jaw, your jaw is already bone. .___.

It might push your teeth forward or out of alignment though.

If they're hurting, you should probably get them removed.... o____o;;

And if you're worried about them making your face wider... you should probably get them removed...

If your wisdom teeth are hurting then you'll have to get them removed. So your face becoming wider will be the least of your worries.

i heard that if you remove your wisdom tooth/teeth, it makes your face/jaw smaller

when my friend's wisdom teeth started growing she didn't look any different
when she got them removed she didn't look any different either o_o
maybe it depends on the person..

my dentist said i won't be growing any wisdom teeth
so idk =__=;;

Don't worry, I doubt your jaw will get any bigger. Most of us don't get our wisdom tooth or teeth until we are in our teen years so by then your jaw should be pretty mature so i do not think it will grow bigger or wider.

You really should get them removed as soon as possible. It doesn't matter if it makes your jaw wider afterward, because if you don't have them taken out you will have more problems them just a wide jaw. No one can say for sure if it will make your jaw smaller, wider, or stay the way it is. Only after the surgery is over will you know.

it does NOT make your jaw wider. if it's hurting that's means it's impacting your other teeth. sooner or later, it's going to shift the alignment of your teeth. therefore, you should get them removed ASAP, even the ones that aren't growing out yet. wisdom teeth are useless. the people who have them grown out and not impacting their teeth gets cavities in their wisdom teeth because it's too far back in the mouth which makes it hard to keep clean. i had a friend who had to get braces at age 18 because his wisdom teeth messed up bottom teeth.

Omgomg I'm supposed to have my wisdom teeth pulled out during winter break, except I reallyyy don't want to because apparently it's going to hurt a great deal since mine can't completely grow out due to lack of space. :/

By the looks of the other replies it seems I should get them pulled out. UGHH. :"(
