Not only that but from what I understand, a major nerve in your jaw grows closer to your wisdom teeth over time. So if you wait on a procedure like that until later in life, it increases the chance that the nerve will be damaged in the procedure, leading to a potential loss of feeling in part of your face. At least this is what I was told by my oral surgeon, assuming he wasn't lying to me for profit...

I waited until later in life. I have a partial loss of feeling in my face now, along with referred sensation in the same area (I feel things on the inside and outside of my mouth simultaneously, it is bizarre.)

So I would believe your surgeon :)
