Answer:

Most people have 4, but some people can have none all the way to 8.

AnswerUsually just four unless you have had too much calcium you can have an extra or two. Answernormally just 4, but my friend just got 6 pulled and someone at my doctors office had 8. the world record was 12!!! AnswerThere are 4 wisdom teeth and the reason why these teeth become useless and bothersome in some people is because hundreds of years ago humans jaws were wider and they need these extra teeth for grinding, but as time marched on the jawlines and facial features changed and the jawlines grew narrower and these extra teeth are no longer needed. AnswerUsually there are four.

Sometimes one, two or all of the wisdom teeth are missing. They have never formed. 25% of people are missing at least one wisdom tooth.

Other times there are extra wisdom teeth, called surnumerary teeth.

Answer

Normally four, but oh lucky me got nine. Three on my upper left two on upper right and two on both sides both were impacted. Haha, but this can be due to your genetics, for me my mom lovingly gave these to me along with a small jaw structure.

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.
