I don't have mine - had to have them removed - 2 were impacted and 2 had exploded/shattered when I was 14. My husband is in his late 40's and still has them. Out of my oldest 3 kids - 2 have them and 1 does not. Kimmie - one of the twins had to have hers removed at the first of the year so we made Kaitie go in as well....oral surgeon told us that Kaitie's team looked fine and she may never have to have them removed. So I think everyone is different and I agree - why take them out if you don't have to!
