    Yes, I still have all of them. I really shouldn't though, and wish I didn't. My top ones jut horizontally into my inner cheeks and hurt like hell sometimes, while my bottom ones have succeeded in displacing my entire bottom row of teeth and cause me pretty regular pain.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    I got two removed last year, one about six months ago and another like four months ago. None of them hurt. It was just a lot of gross drooly blood. The last one caused some discomfort because it was very impacted. The reason they were removed at different times is because they came in at different times which actually worked out better because I could actually eat solid foods on one side.

    The dentist actually botched the last one and there was a sharp bone jabbing at the side of my mouth that I had to go to the dentist twice to fix. Sometimes he's really good (and no pain with him) but when he's bad he is really bad.

    Same. Though aside from that procedure I also had two of my wisdom teeth removed. The other two don't seem to be causing any problems... yet.

    Mine are partially through, but they are sideways, pointing inwards towards my other teeth, so they won't come through more than they already have. It was painful to begin with, but now I don't notice them too much.

    I went to the dentist to ask if I could have them removed, but apparently in the UK they don't like to remove them now unless absolutely necessary, because it can cause damaged nerves. Also, because mine are impacted and laying on their side, they'll have to remove them surgically rather than pulling them. If they start being a pain again, I'll go back!
