Best Answer

Wisdom teeth are the 3rd molars, or the last teeth in the back. Sometimes we can't feel them because they haven't come out, and they can only be detected on an x-ray.

Usually a person has four wisdom teeth.

They are located in the back of your teeth after the second molar being the third molar. Wisdom teeth start to grow out around the ages of 17 to 25 and are often extracted due to complications.

Most people (though not all) have 12 molars in all, but usually the very last ones don't come in until around the age of twenty. Those are the wisdom teeth.

If wisdom teeth cause your teeth to get crooked Do your teeth get straight after you get your wisdom teeth extractions?

Not necessarily. Teeth tend to become more crowed as we age, especially the lower front teeth. This happens in some people regardless of whether they have wisdom teeth or not. Therefore, removing the wisdom teeth, solely for the purpose of hoping to get naturally straighter teeth, won't work.
