It varies from person to person. Some people get them when they are 15 and some never do. Of all the teeth, wisdom teeth (i.e 3rd molars) are the most commonly missing teeth, followed by lower second premolars. The short and sweet answer is wisdom teeth eruption is generally during teenage. Contrary to popular belief eruption of wisdom teeth do not cause crowding and every 3rd molars need not be extracted. I am a dentist and I did lot research on this topic.

You mean all four? Mine, 28.
It's not a problem they don't come through, someone even doesn't get his wisdom teeth come through in his entire life :)

They've been gradually coming through since I was about 17 - I'm 24 now and 2 of them are in fully, 1 still has a little flap of skin over it and one is just a tiny little point that's only just broken through the skin.

Well, I'm 20 and they still haven't come in all the way, but it wasn't until after 18 that I noticed them starting to peak through.
My boyfriend noticed his first coming through at around 17, and he got them pulled at 22, when only 2 had come all the way through. The other 2 had yet to fully grow.

16 or 17 I think. Had to have mine surgically removed because I have a small mouth. Some people never have a problem with them and they come in just fine with no crowding, etc.

If they are going to, typically in your late teens. Sometimes not till your 20's. Most peoples do not come in, usually because of crowding in the jaw.
