The wisdom teeth fable
It may be a fable that widom teeth need to be extracted, but it's close to the truth.
It's certainly preferable, as they're clearly more trouble than they're worth.
IDK this from personal experience, but an injured wisdom tooth is far more painful than a normal molar.
In addition, I can't tell you how many times I bit my tongue when I had them.
I actually haven't bitten my tongue since.
Your sarcasm has driven me to idiocy.
