Wisdom Teeth

So I always say that my sister bit the bullet for me.
She has four wisdom teeth and I have zero.

My sister is getting all of them removed soon.
Let me tell you, you would think that with the way the world is today, removing wisdom teeth would be a lot safer than what it actually is. There are so many risk factors like nerve damage and permanent numbness. I just cannot help but think about how advanced our technology is and yet, there are so many dangers to this surgery.
I feel like there could be a better way to perform this procedure, but no one is looking into it. This is probably because this type of surgery is so mainstream and people are looking past it.

I don't know, maybe I am completely wrong with all of this, but let me know what you think. All I have to say is I am incredibly thankful that I never have to go through the procedure, but I feel really bad for my sister and everyone else who does.

(By the way, did you know 35% of people are born without wisdom teeth? I thought the percentage was a lot lower than that).
