Some people grow extra teeth due to a condition known as hyperdontia, which results in the development of additional teeth beyond the normal set of 32. This condition can be influenced by genetic factors, as it often runs in families. Other potential causes include dental anomalies or syndromes that affect tooth development. Extra teeth can lead to crowding, misalignment, and other dental issues, so they may require removal or orthodontic treatment.

Can you grow fangs?

Some people grow uncommonly sharp teeth when they get their adult teeth. These teeth aren't always incisors like vampire fangs but the teeth further back. This comes from genes from the ancestors of hunter gatherer tribes of ancient times. Those people ate mostly meat which required sharp teeth to chew because it was tough. Unlike modern days where we have ways of making meat more tender and easier to chew. As a result of evolution and passing the DNA from generation to generation some people have inherited the genes that cause sharper teeth to grow. It's is much similar as to why some people can hear better than others. It's genetics. If you're asking if people grow fangs like vampires in the movies then the answer is no. However some people pay dentists to have sharp caps put on their incisors so that they can make their existing teeth more like real fangs but those are not natural fangs.


How many wisdom teeth can you have?

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.AnswerNormally 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.

Can thrid set teeth be grown by people?

Yes, it is true that some people lie just to get attention. But, there are some people that actually do have anywhere between one to seven pair of adult teeth. I myself am one of those people. I have to have one of the third set pulled. And trust me if you are one who doesn't have this your lucky because it hurts. Sometimes the teeth come trough your gums instead of pushing your other teeth out. But don't worry about having this only 1 and 200 people have this.
