wisdom tooth?

Alright, I've been worrying about having wisdom tooth for ages. My gums have been hurting on and off for years already, but I hadn't noticed any tooth growing. Then last month I was counting my teeth (don't ask me why) and then I realised I had 8 teeth on each side of my upper, erm, row of teeth. There are only 7 for the bottom. And those two extra teeth regularly get food stuck. And they're really inconspicuous, like you won't notice they're there unless you count your teeth (like me), cos you can't see them when you open your mouth.

So I'm very scared, cos if food gets stuck easily that means bacterial infections are on the way. Crap, and I realised that like a few days after my dental visit. Should have asked the dentist about it, but then I'll probably have to pay even more for the x-ray.

And according to this picture...


I think mine are wisdom teeth. Sigh...
