With modern dentistry imaging, a database over a person's childhood and adolescence can be built. Using this data, a model of wisdom tooth erruption and growth could be extrapolated. Actually, all tooth growth could be modelled as part of the aging process.
The model should be able to indicate which
tooth surfaces need to be carved and sealed to allow teeth to slip past each other and position properly.
As technology advances, more things should be able to be kept useful longer.

My permanently-impacted wisdom teeth are pointed roughly 90 degrees forwards in comparison to their useful plane, directly at the sides of my back molars. This is very indicative, as my wisdom is also at least a bubble off of plum. |

Maybe the wisdom is to clench your jaw a lot at the
all the little adult problems of life therefore
pressuring the growing teeth into a more level
headed plane. |
