Why do humans have two sets of teeth?

1. A child's jaw is smaller and requires smaller teeth. That's why when we are born and we start growing out teeth, those teeth are temporary and fall out later on. 2. People needed their teeth to live. Having two sets of teeth (and periodically growing more teeth, like molars and wisdom teeth) meant that even if the front teeth rotted away, the person would still be able to eat. Dentistry hasn't been around anywhere near as long as humans have.


How many permanent teeth do humans have?

Adults have 32 teeth differentiated in 16-16 between the two jaws and are categorized in to 4 types i.e, incisors,canines,molar,premolar..This includes the wisdom teeth which are simply a third set of molars. It is possible to be born with less than 32 teeth or more than 32 teeth. If a person has had all four of their wisdom teeth removed, they will have 28 teeth. If they have also had braces, which oftentimes requires the removal of the four first bicuspid teeth, they will function in life with 24 teeth. Children have 20 teeth, once they all come in of course. By the age of 2 years most children have all of their primary (baby) teeth.20http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth#Anatomy Humans usually have 32 permanent teeth (and 20 primary teeth (also called deciduous, baby, or milk teeth))
