A tooth is a full-fledged part of the body, like all other organs and systems. It performs important functions. Teeth are needed for grinding food, clear pronunciation of sounds, aesthetics (improving appearance), they are a kind of frame for the muscles of the maxillofacial area.
Adults and children have different sets of teeth (20 primary and 32 permanent), and the timing of their eruption is also different. It also happens that there are more or less than the required value. Is this considered a pathology, or is removal of supernumerary organs not required? Which ones grow first - incisors, canines or molars? We will talk about all this and the relationship between teeth and internal organs, as well as the main interpretations of astropsychology in this article.
Number of teeth in an adult
An adult has many more teeth than a child:
- incisors - 8,
- fangs - 4,
- small molars (premolars) - 8,
- large molars (molars) - 12.
Most adults have a full set of teeth (32) by adolescence. Eights may grow later. Their eruption is often accompanied by unpleasant symptoms in the form of pain, fever, inflammation and swelling of the gums. “Eights” are sometimes subject to removal because they grow incorrectly and shift the dentition due to lack of space for eruption.
The main reasons for the development of pathology
Currently, no scientist can give a definite answer about what causes the development of this disorder. It is customary to identify several basic theories, each of which has the right to exist, but has no evidence.
Some believe that we inherited the presence of additional teeth from distant ancestors, because they, as is known, had 6 incisors, and not 4. Since additional units usually erupt in the front part of the jaw, they are usually attributed to genetics.
Another version is the splitting of the tooth buds into two parts during the period of intrauterine development of a person. The cause may also be a malfunction in genes, as well as heredity. In any case, having more teeth than necessary gives a person a lot of trouble. In addition, this affects appearance and can cause problems with diction. Today there are several methods for eliminating this pathology.
How many primary and permanent teeth do children have?
Baby teething begins on average at six months of age. The first teeth are called milk teeth, or temporary ones, because after some time they fall out of the mouth. Children grow a total of 20 baby teeth (10 on each jaw). Their main function is to create space for future permanent teeth.
Just because the loss of primary teeth is inevitable, does not mean that you should not take careful care of them. Children need to be taught oral hygiene and proper nutrition from birth.

Signs about fangs
Ancient customs help to avoid danger. If the growth of additional incisors continues for too long, it is necessary to be examined by a doctor. This sign promises hidden illnesses. The extracted fang is dealt with differently; it is folded into a clean scarf and buried under a flowering tree. If a shoot breaks off, trouble is already on the horizon - problems with root shoots entail changes in life.
A fang that has erupted halfway from above indicates that the set goals have been achieved; from below, difficulties cannot be avoided. Changes in the behavior of an adult during the period of growth of cliques indicate his spirituality. If he suffers from pain or becomes aggressive, such a person bears the burden of past lives. People call such torment as retribution for the sins of their ancestors.
Why delete? Among the Slavic peoples it is not customary to get rid of even deformed shoots, so as not to cause trouble for the family. If the incisor is very painful or bleeding, it is treated. Gypsies warn against losing a removed incisor - the molar will cause a curse on the family. A knocked out fang that has been growing promises trouble with the law. The victim should be wary of illegal or uninhibited actions.
Signs about wisdom teeth
Problems associated with wisdom teeth are clues. If you damage the inflamed hole or gum around a tooth with a brush, expect minor conflicts. A wisdom tooth indicates threats associated with kin and ancestral curses:
- a wisdom tooth injury symbolizes a protracted illness;
- the tooth does not fit tightly to the dentition - the person has good energy potential;
- if wisdom teeth are missing, this is a sign of loss of connection with ancestors;
- if healthy additional teeth have grown, the person is granted great spiritual strength.
If they hurt
A wisdom tooth can grow for several weeks in a row, causing severe pain in the gums.
Pain at night promises quarrels
If your wisdom tooth hurts early in the morning, the day will be difficult and you will have to come into contact with unpleasant people. Two teeth ache at once at night - successful, promising acquaintances lie ahead.
Tingling in the gums occurs only at night - such a superstition indicates a rapid change in the immediate environment. Strong conflict situations and quarrels are possible. Rapid growth of wisdom teeth is a sign of success. Popular superstitions predict success for people with 4 straight and healthy teeth.
Severe pain during growth indicates the significance of events that will occur in the near future. If the areas around the gums become very inflamed, there will be difficulties, but they can be overcome.
Rare wisdom teeth, small in size, which erupt with pain, speak of betrayal. Close people can be mean. Pain in the gums indicates fateful changes: there is no point in resisting destined events.
If they bleed
Removing a wisdom tooth brings a lot of trouble: a person experiences severe pain and takes a long time to recover. Bleeding gums are a sign that speaks of liberation from bad habits. For the patient, such a superstition promises a quick recovery. Bleeding of additional teeth indicates changes in professional life: people say “the place is filled for new knowledge,” emphasizing the significance of the sign.
A wisdom tooth is growing and bleeding - wait for news that will change your usual way of life. Removing a diseased tooth means removing problems. The faster the patient gets rid of it, the easier his life will become. Removal of a deformed tooth leads to the restoration of peace in the family: the individual will resume lost ties with relatives and parents.
If they don't grow
Missing molars indicate a weak spirit of the individual. Such a person has difficulty building a strong family or achieving heights in the professional sphere.
Cowardice is inherited along with missing extreme molars. Misfortune awaits those who do not have wisdom teeth - popular superstition warns against carelessness, because the life of such individuals will be difficult.
If they break
Broken teeth are a sign of trouble. If the molar itself is broken, difficulties will come suddenly and take the person by surprise. A special ritual must be done with an extracted tooth: it is buried in the ground so that no one finds it. What to do with a removed molar:
- you cannot store it, failures will accumulate with it;
- if you give it away or give it away, the sign speaks of a loss of control over your own life;
- if it cracks and breaks off, the shoot is thrown over the left shoulder at the intersection;
- there is no place to put the tooth (the removal was carried out at the dentist), you should make sure that the molar is thrown away or burned.
A molar breaks - a warning sign. She points out problems that will have to be overcome. Difficulties in communicating with relatives are manifested by cracks in the pulp: the individual is torn between his desires and the demands of the family.
A broken tooth should be removed and properly discarded
The sign when an additional process under the gum breaks warns against excessive gullibility - if new acquaintances seem reliable, you should not rush to be frank with them. The personality is subject to betrayal and deception.
Signs about baby teeth
If a child suffers during teething (there is no place for them in the dentition), he is destined for a special fate with many difficulties and achievements. Wisdom teeth and the pain associated with their growth represent predetermined fate, events that determine a person’s life.
If milk teeth have been replaced by permanent ones, but the wisdom tooth does not grow, the person is not endowed with great luck. Any achievements in life will be achieved with difficulty, through effort and hard work. If a child was born without additional incisors, it is difficult for him to find a place in life - such a sign indicates isolation from the family. Only the owners of all 4 incisors, grown exactly on time, can receive real protection. Each child’s tooth (healthy or chipped) needs to be buried. If you follow superstition, an adult or child buries future problems with a molar.
Signs associated with wisdom teeth and their interpretation Live healthy! Wisdom teeth. (04/11/2016) This is why I remove many wisdom teeth before the age of 25!
Maximum number of teeth in a person
Throughout a person's life, 2 sets of teeth erupt - milk and permanent (see also: table of the sequence of loss of milk teeth and their replacement with permanent ones). Temporary (20 pieces) are practically no different from permanent ones in appearance: they have a different tone, are smaller in size and are weaker to external factors. The first permanent teeth (“sixes”) appear in the free space behind the “baby” ones, and the rest erupt in areas freed from temporary ones after they fall out.
INTERESTING: growing new teeth in humans instead of removed ones
When asked how many teeth a person should have, almost everyone will answer without hesitation that 32 (for more details, see the article: How many teeth should an adult normally have?). However, not all so simple. Sometimes wisdom teeth do not erupt at all, so some people have only 28 incisors, canines, premolars and molars in their mouths. Every year the number of patients with such an “incomplete” set of teeth is growing, which is a sign of evolution, since “eights” are considered rudimentary, i.e. not performing the key function of teeth - chewing food.
About 2% of the world's population has hyperdontia, a phenomenon in which a person grows extra teeth. Often they remain hidden behind the gums, but there are situations when supernumerary teeth come to the surface and displace the neighboring ones.

When does it count 33?
In dental practice, there are patients who have 33 teeth in their oral cavity. If a supernumerary tooth is discovered, you need to contact a dentist to make a decision about its future fate. If the 33rd does not interfere with the proper growth and performance of any functions of other teeth, then there are no indications for its removal.
Most often, it is wisdom teeth that are “extra.” They erupt in the ninth row and, as a rule, do not cause aesthetic or physical inconvenience. When the 33rd tooth appears in the front of the lower or upper jaw and gives the smile an unaesthetic appearance, the dentist often decides to remove it.
Is there such a thing as 34?
34 teeth is not a myth; medicine knows many similar cases. This anomaly can occur for several reasons, usually:
- initial placement of teeth in the wrong place,
- the result of a failed multiple pregnancy, when one fetus or embryo died, and the rudiments of its teeth passed to a sister or brother.
The 34th, 35th, and 36th teeth grow. Usually these are additional “eights”, growing from the same root with complete wisdom teeth or developing separately.
How many primary and permanent teeth do children have?
Baby teething begins on average at six months of age. The first teeth are called milk teeth, or temporary ones, because after some time they fall out of the mouth. Children grow a total of 20 baby teeth (10 on each jaw). Their main function is to create space for future permanent teeth.
Just because the loss of primary teeth is inevitable, does not mean that you should not take careful care of them. Children need to be taught oral hygiene and proper nutrition from birth.
The loss of a child's first teeth begins at about 6 years of age. Their complete change to indigenous ones continues until early adolescence.

Relationship between teeth and internal organ systems
Not only the results of diagnostic tests, but also the teeth will tell you about diseases of the internal organs. Is it possible to find out about an asymptomatic disease just by looking in the mouth? Which organ systems are at risk? The connection is believed to be as follows:
- Poor condition of the incisors of both jaws means the presence of problems with the genitourinary system and ears.
- Unhealthy fangs signal problems with the liver and biliary system - hepatitis, cholecystitis.
- Premolars - respiratory system and large intestine. Problems with these teeth can be caused by pneumonia, allergies and other diseases in a person.
- Molars are connected to the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Ulcer, gastritis, pancreatitis are the causes of deterioration of the condition of large molars.
- “Eights” are responsible for the cardiovascular system and small intestine.
At the same time, dental problems lead to various diseases and disorders of internal organs:
- toothache causes severe migraine (especially if it concerns the upper canines),
- Periodontal diseases cause the development of diseases of the cardiovascular system,
- pulpitis often provokes gastritis and cholecystitis, which are difficult to treat,
- any inflammation in the oral cavity is accompanied by the entry of toxins into the body, causing various pathologies (depending on the state of the person’s immunity).
Symptoms of wisdom teeth erupting
This process occurs differently for all people: some experience unbearable pain, others do not even feel that their third molars are erupting. Dentists call the following main symptoms indicating that a wisdom tooth is cutting:
- Pain in the jaw area. This symptom indicates that the “figure eight” is cutting through the bone tissue and gums.
- Pain when swallowing. It occurs as a result of inflammation of the gums during the eruption of the third molar.
- Swelling of the gums.
- The formation of a “hood” that covers the wisdom tooth from above and rises as it grows.
- Presence of infiltrate in the cavity of the “hood”. It is formed as a result of the ingress of food particles and the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria.
- Inflammation of the lymph nodes.
If you do not pay attention to these signs and do not provide symptomatic treatment for these processes, serious complications can occur. Often, against the background of painful and problematic eruption of wisdom teeth, complications develop such as:
- pericoronitis - an inflammatory process in the “hood” and soft tissues around the erupting molar;
- phlegmon - purulent melting of subcutaneous tissue in the maxillofacial area;
- abscess - an acute inflammatory process of the root zone of a tooth;
- osteomyelitis – purulent-infectious inflammation of the bone tissue in the jaw;
- caries;
- periodontitis is an inflammatory process in the connective tissue (periodontal tissue) surrounding the upper part of the tooth root.
If, during the eruption of wisdom teeth, inflammatory processes develop in the human body, an increase in body temperature of up to 40 degrees may be observed.
Maximum number of teeth in a person
Throughout a person's life, 2 sets of teeth erupt - milk and permanent (see also: table of the sequence of loss of milk teeth and their replacement with permanent ones). Temporary (20 pieces) are practically no different from permanent ones in appearance: they have a different tone, are smaller in size and are weaker to external factors. The first permanent teeth (“sixes”) appear in the free space behind the “baby” ones, and the rest erupt in areas freed from temporary ones after they fall out.
Supernumerary teeth
Modern dentistry offers many names for the pathology in which teeth grow from the roof of the mouth. Concepts such as supradentia, hyperdentia or supernumerary teeth are often encountered. They mean the same thing - the presence of a larger number of dental units in a row than provided by nature. The location of the “extra” units can be very different: they can be in a row, behind it, in front of it, in the root zone and even in the sky.
Most often, pathologies occur in which supernumerary teeth are located in the frontal zone of the row (in the upper and lower row, as well as near the canines).
However, they may differ in shape and size, but the most common are cone-shaped specimens.
At first glance, these teeth look absolutely healthy, strong and strong, but in everyday life they can cause a lot of inconvenience. These units do not carry any functional load, so it is worth thinking about correcting the existing defect.
