Wisdom Teeth haven't grown out yet and I'm almost 24

[Xero_Daxter]

I'm almost 24 years old and my Wisdom Teeth haven't even grown out or even sprouted. Right now I have 28 sets of teeth but still no Wisdom.

Is this normal? Do some people never grow it at all?

I’m sure it has happened. Consider yourself lucky that you don’t have to have them removed.

Its because theres no such thing as wisdom teeth.

They’re technically third molars and it was expected we’d lose the teeth around them first.

im almost 21 and mine arent really growing bigger either , thjey came out in the last 1 or 2 years and just stay smaller than other teeth for some reason

I'm a lot older than that and only had 3 wisdom teeth. My father also only had 3 wisdom teeth.

Scientist believe that eventually we will evolve out of them as they haven't really been room for them in our mouths for years.

Go see a dentist and find out... the earlier you get wisdom teeth removed the better, as less bone has to be removed and you are less likely to have complications with your other teeth :)

It's not normal, but it is also not necessarily a problem. You may not have wisdom teeth. Some people don't. They're an evolutionary adpation that has outlived its usefulness. I would ask your parents if they have wisdom teeth. If neither of them do, you're probably fine, though you may want to see a dentist to make sure.

Far more likely is the possibility that you're in an intermediate stage of evolution where you do have wisdom teeth but they just aren't going to grow out because they're so small. I'm pretty sure that could lead to gum problems, but I'm no dentist. According to the internet, which one apparently needs wisdom teeth to use, you may develop "impacted" wisdom teeth. That doesn't sound good. Again, I'd check with the dentist.

I've heard some people say that it took until their mid thirties before their wisdom teeth cut in.

But I was 19 when my wisdom teeth came.

I don't even have the upper wisdom teeth (evolutionary advanced!), and the lower ones are not coming out, either. I'm 35.

I had mine pulled in 2012.

Not advanced enough to use the word "evolutionarily" it would seem. :p

i am in my fifth decade of life and i still have my partially erupted right wisdom tooth...
i am too afraid to go to the dentist and idk how much will i pay for such an operation plus the dental xray fees...

I'm on the same boat.


This is going to be awful, innit?
