Best Answer

Including typical wisdom teeth, the normal adult dentition includes 12 molars (six in each arch).

Remember though, there are many anomalies (variations) in dental anatomy, and some people can have more or less teeth than what is considered 'normal.'

Look up the terms 'supernumerary teeth' and 'congenitally missing teeth.'
Twelve molars, in 4 groups.
