It took a while for me but after some thinking I believe it is a joke for Americans, for whom dental care is infamously expensive. Probably this type of wisdom tooth causes problems so frequently that a dentist could pretty much live off a single patient with this condition, that'd be the joke. Full disclaimer I'm not American, not a dentist and my wisdom teeth also not like that

Nah, just a joke about there always being more to remove as it becomes problematic for a new person
