well dear its a very common problem these days but u need not not to worry so much...

wisdom tooth is the last most tooth in each quad rent in our mouth which comes after the age of 16 years and as it comes so late the peridontium(the mucosa on which it erupt) become thicker and when it erupt it tear that mucosa and comes out.. that's is why its pain and bleeds some time..so, as a preventive measure u can do saline water gargles 3 to four times a day and also take pain killer like "paracod" if pain is so intense..

but i suggest u to visit a dentist and have a check up so that he can see that the tooth getting adequate space to came out or it may require some minor surgery procedure to get it in oral cavity..!

note:- some times a tooth not get adequate space and it start growing in other direction and does not errupt in oral cavity leading to intense pain..the condition is known as impacted tooth and it requires extraction so do visit your dentist as early possible.Health Question & Answer
