Can a wisdom tooth make your throat swell up to the point off choking?
It depends on how big the wisdom tooth is. If it is just a little one then no. And it could matter how narrow or big your throat is.
Can you prove that you've had a wisdom tooth out before if it's growing back and your new dentist does not believe you?
Wisdom teeth don't 'grow back', you only get one set. The dentist can see teeth that have not yet erupted through the gums in an X-ray years before they are ready to come through. They know for sure if they are coming back through or not. If you may have had a different tooth pulled than what you realized, and the wisdom tooth is just now coming in. Also, if your wisdom tooth was actually removed, sometimes little pieces break off during the extraction. If this happens, it could work its way back through your gum months, or even years, after the tooth itself is removed. It can cause irritation until it comes all the way out. There is nothing holding it in place, so your body will go ahead and just push it through. Your dentist can help get the piece out if it is really bothering you.
What is the oldest age a wisdom tooth could grow out?
I am 59, and have a wisdom tooth coming through. The tooth is not impacted and growing in the right direction upwards. However, it is huge, twice as big as my other wisdom teeth. It started to grow (when I noticed) when I was 56. It will grow for about three days stop for maybe 45 to 60 days then grow for another three days. Sometimes it hurts more than other. I haven't been to the dentist, just allowing nature to take it's course.

When a wisdom tooth is extracted, the anesthesia may take time to wear out. This is why someone may feel drowsy hours after the extraction. It is a good idea to just take a short nap.
Can you get braces if your tooth is coming in?

If half of your wisdom tooth's root is missing can you just extract the tooth or could this be a jaw cyst or other complicated thing.?
The short answer is yes, it could potentially be something serious. If a tooth's root has partially resorbed or disappeared it could be a sign of some underlying pathology. That's not always the case, but its always better to be safe than sorry and let oral surgeon take a look and do a biopsy of the area if he deems necessary.
Is it okay to drink alcohol two days before wisdom tooth surgery?
