These number 20 in all: 2 central incisors, 2 lateral incisors, 2

The last of the permanent teeth (wisdom teeth) may not appear until
the 25th year, and in some persons do not erupt at all. The permanent
teeth generally number 32 in all: 4 incisors, 2 canines, 4 bicuspids,
and 4 (or 6, if wisdom teeth develop) molars in each jaw. Human
canines are the smallest found in any mammal. Tooth Anatomy. Humans
have two sets of teeth, the baby teeth (also called the primary teeth)
and the permanent teeth.
Wisdom teeth present potential problems when
they are misaligned - they can position themselves horizontally, be
angled toward or away from the second molars or be angled inward or
outward. Poor alignment of wisdom teeth can crowd or damage adjacent
teeth, the jawbone, or nerves. Wisdom teeth that lean toward the
second molars make those teeth more vulnerable to decay by entrapping
plaque and debris. In addition, wisdom teeth can be entrapped
completely within the soft tissue and/or the jawbone or only partially
break through or erupt through the gum.
