We are not in favor of altering the body if there is a noninvasive way to deal with a problem, and certainly to alter something that is functioning, simply as a would-be protective measure, is often not only unnecessary but ill-advised. This has led to trouble a number of times with surgeons cutting things out of the body at the first sign of trouble. That has led to many tonsillectomies, for example, as well as removal of the thymus gland simply when it becomes enlarged because it is being called upon to help the body, but seems to be an abnormality to the untrained eye. There can be complications involving wisdom teeth, but it is tempting to jump the gun and simply remove them while a person is young. So we would discourage the practice without a compelling reason to remove them, particularly in cases where the protocols can be used on a lifelong basis to keep people healthy—that will minimize such complications from developing.
