    I got my wisdom teeth removed because the one that had erupted was bothering me. The other three hadn't come through yeat but as far as I know they would have with time. The one that had come in seemed pretty large and was angled somewhat outward at about a 20 degree angle. I don't know if my jaw is done growing. My question is, if I had left those teeth in, would my jaw have grown wider, longer, or in any way different than it will now? (keep in mind that my teeth are pretty large and the one wisdom tooth was angled outward) don't be afraid to give me a true answer.
    I had turned 21 three months before they were removed.

    Jaws have generally stopped growing at age 18 so it is probably a good thing you had them all removed at once.
