An adult has 32 teeth.

As a member of the family hominidae, and genus homo (human) we have the tooth formula 2.1.2.3, giving us 32 teeth including the m3's (wisdom teeth). Also considering that, as a genetic characteristic, some humans will never have wisdom teeth, it would be wrong to call this the normal number of teeth because neither formula is normal or abnormal.
