How many wisdom teeth will grow

Many people know that people usually grow wisdom teeth after adulthood, and in a sense, wisdom teeth are a sign of a person's growth and wisdom. Although with the passage of time, modern humans have abandoned many of their original things and evolved into more advanced creatures, wisdom teeth are still retained in modern humans. So how many wisdom teeth will grow in a normal person's mouth?

The key to the growth of wisdom teeth depends on the position of your gums and whether there is enough space in the jawbone. If there is enough, it will not hurt at all. Wisdom teeth may be impacted in the jawbone or may not erupt at all. Or it may cause crowding or displacement of other teeth, resulting in local tooth decay, infection or gum pain. The position of impacted wisdom teeth in the jawbone is also abnormal, and sometimes they are even impacted horizontally. In this case it is best to remove it. In addition, if you are in so much pain, it is best to go to the hospital for treatment. In other cases, it is best not to extract wisdom teeth, as they are located at the innermost part of the mouth and are the most difficult to operate. Improper operation may be harmful. Using anesthetics is not a good thing either.

After excluding the above situations, if you don't want to remove the septum, here are some suggestions:

1. Do not lick wisdom teeth with your tongue;

2. Massage, rub the inside of the face gently, until it hurts a little, about 40 to 50 times a day, and the pain will be relieved after a few days;

3. Be sure to rinse your mouth after eating, preferably with salt water;

4. Eat some heat-clearing foods (bitter melon, lotus seeds, etc.), chrysanthemum tea, honeysuckle;

5. If you feel severe pain, you can also take some anti-inflammatory drugs;

6. Apply some ice cubes to the red and swollen areas to relieve pain.

The toothache caused by wisdom teeth is due to the abnormal position, height and direction of the wisdom teeth’s eruption, which interferes with the normal movement of the jaw during chewing, causing abnormal forces on the chewing muscles and temporomandibular joints, causing spasms and pain in the related muscles. Over time, it can lead to abnormal function of the temporomandibular joint and even pathological changes in the joint structure.

Wisdom teeth are the teeth in the mouth closest to the throat. If all of them grow out, there will be 4 wisdom teeth in total, two in each of the upper and lower jaws. There are great individual differences in the growth of wisdom teeth. Some people have them before the age of 20, some at the age of 40 or 50, and some never grow them in their entire lives. This is all normal. Moreover, not all four wisdom teeth will grow completely. Some people may only grow 1 or 2 wisdom teeth, and some wisdom teeth may even stop growing halfway.

There are many people who have four wisdom teeth, and some people have more. So don’t have too much psychological burden, and don’t worry about causing harm to your body. These things don’t exist. As long as these wisdom teeth are in the normal position and do not hurt the mouth and do not affect our normal speaking and eating, don’t worry.
