How many teeth do we have excluding the 4 wisdom teeth?!


Question: 28


Answers: 28

There are 4 quadrants in the mouth: upper and lower arches, each having right and left halves. In each quadrant, there are 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars, and 2 molars (excluding wisdom teeth). 7*4 = 28 teeth in the adult human mouth.

In a child, there are 2 incisors, 1 canine, and 2 molars per quadrant, giving 5*4 = 20 teeth in the mouth.

Mixed dentition is when you have both adult and deciduous(baby) teeth in the mouth, and so the number of teeth in the mouth varies during this transition period.
