What Are Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom Teeth

Say: WIZ-dum

You will have learned a lot by the time you get your wisdom teeth, but they don't make you any smarter! Between the ages of 17 and 21, most people get 4 more molars all the way in the back of the mouth, one in each corner. If wisdom teeth don't grow in properly, they may have to be removed.
