Can wisdom teeth cause enlarged lymph nodes or an enlarged spleen?

I had an enlarged spleen and enlarged lymph nodes and it turned out that I had Mono. I don't think your "spleen" has anything to do with your wisdom teeth coming in. But, in uncommon cases, infection to your wisdom teeth can sometimes cause enlarged lymph nodes, but only if the teeth are "impacted". A dental impaction is where an unearthed tooth is growing in crooked underneath the gumline. This also causes other dental problems such as crooked teeth. If the lymph nodes your are referring to are painless and are swelling with other symptoms, then you might have a serious condition, which also means you need to see a doctor immediately. The swelling in the lymph nodes in your neck are the ones to swell if your teeth are infected from an impaction. Also, only the lower teeth can cause lymph node swelling in your neck. The nodes will be tender, moveable, and causing pain in any way. Any kind of severe infection in your mouth, including a wisdom tooth infection, can cause your lymph nodes to become larger. The spleen should not be directly affected though.

Which kind of teeth is replaced after teeth are broken?

Humans usually gets two sets of teeth. Baby AKA milk teeth, then a set of adult teeth. The last of the adult teeth to appear are called the wisdom teeth. If one of the adult teeth are damaged, the body won't grow a new one. If you want to have it replaced, you have to see a dentist, there are several different ways of creating an artificial tooth as a replacement.


Why do humans have different kind of teeth?

Humans all have the same number and kind of teeth. Only, it takes a lot of care over the years to keep them all. In some cases they grow straight by themselves; in other cases they grow crooked or fall out. And wisdom teeth today often remain below the surface of your gums. But while peoples' teeth may look different, we all start out with the same set.


What is the cost for 4 wisdom teeth extracted?

I just recently had my wisdom teeth out and it cost about $250 a tooth. Don't let cost get in the way of getting them out if possible. I was told to get my wisdom teeth out about five years ago and since I waited so long my wisdom teeth pushed up against the molars they were next to and damaged them so they had to be removed as well. I was also getting infections in them. For me, the initial price (For just the wisdom teeth) was $2300. That's everything the anesthesia, removal, etc. Fortunately my oral surgeon told me to ask the receptionists if there was any kind of payment plan or anyway I could knock the price down a bit. They were able to lower the price to $2237, which was even lower than the inital price for just the wisdom teeth alone! Make sure that when you go to have your teeth removed you ask about a payment plan. Most people go into the health-care field to help people.
