I have a question about wisdom teeth. Well, I've heard wisdom teeth are like, little extra teeth that grow in your mouth, when they're not nessecary. Well, can these WISDOM TEETH grow in naturally, like regular teeth? Or do they always come out like, in the way back where your molars are, or behind a tooth. And does EVERYONE have wisdom teeth? I don't have mine yet, so I'm just asking...

Oh yes. And another thing. Do you ALWAYS grow in 4 wisdom teeth? Or just 2 or 4 wisdom teeth?

around 16 wisdom teeth come in as molars at the very back. two on the top and two on the bottom. Often they come in crooked and become impacted. This is what causes so many people to have to wear braces. In this case, they have to be removed before they ruin the alignment of the teeth or you will need braces.

Some wisdom teeth do grow in normally and the number varies by person. I am too old to cut teeth and have never had a wisdom tooth. Maybe you will be a lucky one.

4 wisdom teeth in back of mouth, not small teeth, not everybody develops them, yes they can come in normally but not often. I had mine pulled one a time only when they started to hurt, 1 about every 3-4 yrs starting at age 17.

Yes they always grow in the back, and not everyone even grow in there wisdom teeth, my mom never had her wisdom teeth come in.
I had mine come in at 17, probably because I had 6 teeth pulled because of my braces.

Yes, the teeth can grow in naturally. It doesn't happen for everyone though that's why a lot of people have them removed.
Mine were coming in from the side so they were hitting the roots of my other teeth and they had to be extracted.
I'm pretty sure that everyone has them, but it might be possible for one not to have them (or for them to not come down at all) The only way to know if you have them or not is to ask your dentist. He can see them in the xrays and let you know if they'll descend or not.

It relies upon on the guy. usually 17yrs onwards. In some persons it on no account erupts of their lifetime. discomfort is generic mutually as the eruption of expertise tooth. U chew sugarless chewing gum with that facet so as that the tissue protecting the tooth would be comfortable and pull backwards. Make ur mouth clean constantly. rinse heat saline water morning ang nighttime after brushing. U have discomfort take any painkiller.determine u ve no drug hypersensitivity. Uncomfortable discomfort bypass to ur dentist and he will do away with that overlying tissue on ur tooth(oppurculectomy)(on condition that it is not coming off by utilising itself).very minor technique doing below community anesthesia.

YES SOMETIMES WISDOM TEETH CAN HAVE ROOM TO GROW IN, BUT I WOULD SAY ABOUT 70% OF TIME THEY DO HAVE TO BE REMOVED, BUT BEL EVIE ME YOU WILL KNOW IF THEY NEED TO BE REMOVED, BECAUSE THE PAIN IS SO BAD THAT YOU WISH SOMEONE WOULD PUT YOU TO SLEEP IN TILL THEY ARE GONE! I HAD TO HAVE MINE REMOVE AND I WAS SO HAPPY ONCE THEY WERE GONE I WAS PUT TO SLEEP WHILE THEY WERE REMOVED I THINK IT'S ALOT BETTER THAT WAY, BUT YOU WON'T FEEL ANYTHING
