I don't know how much is hereditary and how much is oral hygiene,
brushing and flossing, and not brushing so much you wear off your
enamel. I think that most people have wisdom teeth and for many people
they are not a problem, but other people have problems with them being
impacted. I had problems with a wisdom tooth and the dentist thought
it should come out. I was dreading it because of all the stories I had
heard about them, but it came out without a problem. My son had to have
his out when he was in high school. He had two removed on one side one
day and the other two the next day. He was in a world of hurt for a
couple days.

My oral hygiene is quite good, according to my hygienist. My current
problem is that my temperomandibular joint is locked up. The same
thing happened when I had the wisdom teeth on the other side out
35 years ago. It feels like a sprain.

Toast again for me. It's sourdough rye. Toasts up really nicely.

I'm going to have either:
Roast pumpkin soup with a poached egg or a toasted smoked ham cheese
and mayo sandwich. But first, a couple of double lattes to wake me up.

Why would you say that some don't? Sure, I suppose there might be a few, but
I should think this is rare.

I said it because it's a fact. Some people don't have wisdom teeth.
*I* don't have wisdom teeth. Nary a sign of them in any X-rays, ever.
No teeth erupting or becoming impacted. I simply do not have those
extra teeth. For that I'm very thankful.

Not sure why you would call them extra teeth as the vast majority of us do
have them. Or did have them.

I had an upper wisdom tooth erupt in my late 20s, and the other upper
one in my mid 30s. The two lower ones never happened.
It's not at all unusual.

I only got 3 wisdom teeth. All pulled now.
And a crazy shock of gray hair at my hairline, just like my mom had, with
the rest of the gray coming in slowly, sort of salt and pepper for now.

When you probe into the story a little, what it boils down to is "there's
no proof that it does any good", because they can't exactly set up an
experiment where everybody takes identical care of their identical
teeth except that some of them floss and some of them don't.

I'm going to continue to floss because I know that it keeps my gums
more healthy, based on times when I've slacked off due to dental
surgery and then resumed.

Good grief! Can you even read English? "Others don't" implies some
number, even if it's a very small number. Actually, 35% of the
population is born without wisdom teeth, which you could easily
find out if you had the curiosity of a gnat.

I seem to have got two of yours. I ended up with 6 wisdom teeth. Four
on the top; two on the bottom.

Really? That's interesting. Never heard of that.
I had 4. Had 3 removed at separate times. Only one was bad as they had
to saw into my jaw bone. That hurt muchly. I still have one but I assume
it won't cause any problems after all this time.

People that don't floss will grasp this news item. 10 years from now
you'll hear, "Oops, we were wrong. Good to floss." I floss almost every
day. sometimes I get lazy but it does make a difference in your dental
health, imo.

My wife started to develop gum problems about 20 years ago and starred
to floss daily. It is part of her bed time routine, and it has done
wonders. She rarely has tooth problems except for the occasional old
filling that loosens.

Since I discovered the Reach Flosser, I floss daily, something I never did
before. My dentist visits have been mostly uneventful since; a major

thereof), I'll continue daily flossing because I believe that to be the
reason for better outcomes/
--------------------

Ours are now saying it is better to use those wee brushes between the teeth.

My dentist and dental hygienist refuse to work on some people because
it's obvious that they don't own a toothbrush.
