Jerry,

What would you suggest that I do about so-called wisdom tooth that is just now coming in? It's breaking through the surface now. I go to my consult next week with the dentist / oral surgeon team. They had mentioned it in passing on my initial office visit. They wanted to wait for the panoramic x-ray to come back before making any type of decisions.

Is this a good sign that there is "growth" in my mouth? It just so happens that it's on the same side that I had the tumor removed from and most of the radiation was focused on.
