Wisdom teeth

I'm 16 and a half and my second wisdom teeth are just about to break through, every night I'm waking up in agony with the pain from one side of my mouth. I've tried taking ibuprofen and paracetamol and also using bonjela at the same time, but I'm still in so much pain, what can I do? My exams are soon and I don't want the pain to affect them!

I still recommend you see your dentist even though there's plenty of room for them to come in. They could be impacted or trying to come in sideways.
You should be able to take Tylenol for the pain. Try getting in to see your dentist though.

They're is plent of room for them to come in, it's just they really hurt and I was wondering if anyone knew any other remedies to help ease the pain, or how long they will take to come in

Have you been to your dentist yet? You may have to have your wisdom teeth removed.
