YES it can very well be less than 32. Having less than 32 is not abnormal. SOME teeth can be missing congenitally. Others may be present but may not erupt into the mouth. Those are called impacted. Imapacted teeth may number one or more.YOU can still say that you have a full set of adult teeth .

How do the development of infant skull teeth differ from adult teeth?

Infant teeth, also known as primary teeth or baby teeth, start developing in the womb and usually begin to erupt around 6 months of age. These teeth are smaller and whiter than adult teeth and are eventually replaced by permanent teeth. Adult teeth, on the other hand, start developing around age 6 and continue to erupt until early adulthood. They are larger and stronger than baby teeth and are meant to last a lifetime.
