Does wisdom teeth pain come and go?

I am a 25 year old female. I want to know if wisdom teeth pain comes and goes?

Yes, you get "teething" pain as they erupt or you can get cavity pain when they are some of the way in and there is a cavity. That's why it's best to plan for their removal, instead of waiting for them to really hurt. Then it's usually the day before your vacation!
Yes, and that's why there are two schools regarding wisdom teeth extraction. The 1st school necessitates extraction by the appearance of any early symptoms before causing any harm, however, the second is conservative, which involves oral hygiene instructions while monitoring, and extraction is only indicated if symptoms are recurring. Symptoms may start as simply as uncomfortable, irritating pain and might reach to swelling, infection, and damaging the adjacent tooth through trapped food.
Yes, it does. Wisdom teeth start to erupt a bit, then stop and become silent for a while. It's always wise to make sure your dentist has viewed your wisdom teeth, both clinically and via X-rays to make sure they're not more problematic (they can cause other problems that aren't always evident until later).
The answer is that it’s possible. You may experience eruptive spurts which can cause gum pain similar to that of a teething baby. This may come and go intermittently. Pain can also result from infected gum tissues around a partially erupted wisdom tooth. Even the red sore tissues around an erupting wisdom tooth can become infected, which can also result in pain.
Yes, it is possible.
