I'm 27 y/o and I still have 2 wisdom teeth who have just started coming through!. My husband says I'm a liar, that it isn't possible for someone my age to have wisdome teeth still coming in!. So am I just a weirdo because these teeth are coming in!?

Answers:
Well some people never get there wisdom teeth but since you said u feel them coming in, Im sure you are!. There is really no specific age!. I know this sounds crazy but I am a dental assistant and we had a 94 year old lady who came it because her gums were sore and it was her wisdom teeth that were coming in!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It varies! Teeth are in a constant moving state!. If you had a tooth keeping your wisdom tooth from erupting, and you remove that tooth, the wisdom tooth will start erupting!. I've seen it happen in a 64 year old!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know people in their fifties who don't have all their wisdom teeth yet!. In fact I only have two, the other two aren't even there!. Everyone is different!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

commonly they erupt at age of 20!. plus minus 2-3 yrs!. but they can erupt as late as 25!. but everyone is different!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've had mine out at age 30!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
