take 'em out, dude. you could end up with a lot more long-term pain and crazya$$ dental bills if you don't.
i had all 4 impacted when they were yanked - it's certainly not fun, but it's not the worst thing that will ever happen to you by any means. and it sounds like you're already suffering, anyway.
