Answer 1

  Hi Dani ,

  

  Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last teeth to erupt in your mouth. This generally occurs between the ages of 17 and 25, a time of life that has been called the "Age of Wisdom."

Anthropologists note that the rough diet of early humans resulted in the excessive wear of their teeth. Normal drifting of the teeth to compensate for this wear ensured that space was available for most wisdom teeth to erupt by adolescence. The modern diet, which is much softer, and the popularity of orthodontic tooth straightening procedures produce a fuller dental arch, which quite commonly doesn't leave room for the wisdom teeth to erupt, thereby setting the stage for problems when the final four molars enter the mouth.

Don't worry.

Good luck enjoy life.

usually anywhere from the teens onwards some people get them through sooner than others some never at all all mine are there as seen on xrays,but only one pushed through so far which i had removed

Answer 7

No, it's the same ordeal with puberty, never know when it's going to happen.

On the other hand, you may be like myself and not have any wisdom teeth at all [trait passed on from my father] and you might just have a toothache.

All in all, if it gets worse, ask someone older wh had them or consult your dentist.

Good luck!

Answer 8

No there is not.I have only one wisdom tooth, it erupted when I was fifty.
