I had mine pulled last year because there were cavities growing in the very back corners where it was hard for me to brush. Rather than bother filling them, since they'd likely have the issue again eventually, I had them pulled. I don't regret it, but I do wish I had done it younger.

The recovery in your 30s is way worse than if you do it when they first come in.

Can confirm. Had all 4 of mine pulled last year due to the risk of infection from not being able to brush them properly, even though none were causing me any pain. The recovery was not pleasant at the age of 37. Thankfully I avoided dry socket but I had lower jaw soreness for a few weeks due to how one of them grew in.
