If your wisdom teeth have erupted properly and you have functional contacts- AND are able to maintain your wisdom teeth (from a hygienic standpoint) - which is typically the problem we see in this situation- there's generally no absolute reason to remove the wisdom teeth in this case. Evaluation by an OMS would be recommended.
