How many teeth do you have?

Gwynplaine

I had all mine up to 3 years ago. After a bad fall I lost 3 front teeth. After a lot of time, pain and money, I got implants, and I now have all my teeth again.

29 real, and 3 false.

I have all my own teeth ...spent a lot on them.

kfallon

Have them all, never even had so much as a toothache in my life!

However I did have a dream last week that 2 just fell out of my mouth, weird!

The Backwards Man

Fell in a shower and hit my head off a toilet bowl a few years ago, four front teeth broke in pieces, one of the back ones cracked beyond repair. Implants in now and I'm smiling like Julia Roberts.

Apparently that dreaming about teeth falling out is an anxiety thing.

Or probably just a dream!

I have all my normal teeth, 1 wisdom tooth on top and 2 bottom wisdom teeth that I have to have removed as there's no room for them to come up

Really? Oh dear, I'm now anxious about my anxiety!!

I just checked...I've loads.

32, although they probably consist more of fillings than teeth at this stage

ceadaoin.

I had 4 teeth removed for braces when I was a teenager and my wisdom teeth are impacted and unerupted so I only have 24

I had to have all of my wisdom teeth removed. No room.

Eh...28 and a half. I have half a wisdom tooth.

jester77

All there, 2 wisdom teeth on the bottom as well.

I read somewhere that in a couple of hundred years us humans will have evolved further and will not develop wisdom teeth as teenager.

Were they separate incidents or do you have a toilet bowl in the shower? :eek:

I have roughly 28. I just counted them with my tongue. I've had 2 taken out near the back over the years.

I'd say you could count again.

holystungun9

Just the one. God knows what I'll do if I lose ol' Chopper.

Ruu

Have pretty bad teeth(24 left), just got 3 wisdom teeth removed a few weeks ago. Have 'eye' teeth that stick out so a bit like Dracula. Those need straightened.

EoghanIRL

28 and one partially erupted lower wisdom tooth.

Aongus Von Bismarck

I lost a tooth following a very bad-tempered minor hurling game between our club and the ill-bred thugs who lined out for Athenry back in 1998. Our manager was a doctor, and the tooth was placed back in its socket on the sideline. I kept the tooth and we won the game.

Summer wind

I've 27. I'd my 4 wisdom teeth removed about 11 years ago. It didn't hurt too much but I still hate my dentist check ups.

mohawk

I got 8 teeth removed before I got my braces as a teenager so now I have 24. Just didn't have room for them all.

I counted them 3 times and got 3 different numbers so I'll go with 26. One of them is fake.

Mad_Dave

28 - I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed a few years back.
Just a single filling as well.

sullivlo

Missing one. Dentist thought it was a baby tooth that was stuck so he removed it to leave space for the grown up tooth to come down.

The grown up tooth never arrived so I'm missing a tooth.

Rest are all my own work. No wisdomous teeth yet I don't think, and at 29 I doubt they'll come. If I'm not wise now it ain't gonna happen.

markc1184

28 - I had 4 teeth removed before I had my braces fitted.

It's easy to mistake a molar for two different teeth if you're counting without looking at it.

Mint Sauce

30. One of them is a (i think) partially erupted wisdom tooth. 2 of them at the back slightly chipped, and 3 or 4 filled.

Had 2 or 3 removed as a teen due to over crowding, and could currently do with having 2 or 3 filled. But hate the dentist, and only been about 2 or 3 times in about 16 years. Both times to get the 2 chipped ones filed.

ARRRRRGHHHH!! I have recurring nightmares about this.


I've 27 and one implant. Had two pulled out for braces years ago as there was overcrowding.

Spanish Eyes

All my fronts so the smile is grand.

Backs are full of fillings. One needs root canal, feck that.

Have a crown that is wobbly, yikes. Money money money....

osarusan

All of them.

Had 4 wisdom teeth out a couple of years ago.

Mostly in decent condition, but I apparently grind them at night, so one on the top right side is damaged at the base/gum.

Still have all 28 normal teeth. Haven't got "wisdom" or freakteeth.

You might not have any. A friend of mine had dental X-rays done a few years ago and apparently her wisdom teeth just aren't there. Seemingly not that uncommon.

I have 26 teeth. I had four removed before I got braces due to overcrowding, and then I had both wisdom teeth on the left hand side removed as they were impacted and really sore. It feels a bit gross to say I only have 26 teeth, though. Don't know why.

You must be the only person alive with 3 rows of teeth.

25. I had 4 out for braces and 3 wisdom teeth pulled.

wattlebird

24. Had to get 4 healthy premolars out due to ridiculous overcrowding before getting braces, and then had all 4 wisdom teeth out the other year. None of them had even erupted properly but were starting to cause problems.

My teeth and smile look fine, but I still feel traumatised and have regular nightmares about teeth falling out/being loose :eek:

Novella

I had two top teeth taken out when I was teenager to make space for my other teeth to straighten out with braces. I have two wisdom teeth on the bottom but none on the top.

Duggy747

I don't need no teef!

Turtyturd

29...two out when I was younger to make room for my wisdom teeth. Dunno where the other missng one went to.

lickme

Nothing better than getting a gummy job of an ould one!

scrimshanker

31. Had 32 until a couple of weeks ago but had to have one wisdom tooth out because it was cutting through the gum below it (ouch!!!!). No fillings,just generally happy teeth.
