Very few people have enough room for their wisdom teeth.  As a result, most have them removed.  The best thing to do is to have them removed before they cause any damage to the surrounding teeth and tooth support structures.  For most people this would be in their late teens or early 20's.  The younger you are, the faster things heal and the easier the extractions are.  Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed, but if you do, removing them can help you avoid a lot of long term problems.
