Answer:
YOU NORMALLY HAVE 3 MOLAR TEETH, THE 3RD TOOTH IN THE SERIES IS THE MOLAR TOOTH AND IT USUALLY ERUPTS LATER ON AROUND 18 YEARS OF AGE..THEY ARE CALLED WISDOM TEETH IN SLANG TERMS COS THEY ERUPT LATE USUALLY AROUND THE TIME ONE ASSUMES YOU BECOME MATURE!!!
They are teeth that grow in the back of your mouth after your adult teeth are fully in. Some people have room for them to grow in, and a lot of people have to get surgery to remove them because there is not enough room in their mouth for the teeth to come in. Some people don't have any, and rarely people will have more than 4 (which is the normal number).
The teeth in the very back of your mouth. They tend to be rather large and tend to grow in in funky ways. Most people end up having to have theirs pulled, while others have to have them removed by an oral surgeon.
