    What is the probability of having more than one set of wisdom teeth?

    Question #113572. Asked by real_pc. (Mar 22 10 1:12 AM)


    Zbeckabee

    Wisdom teeth are, except in rare circumstances, the only other set of teeth that appear, and they come quite a bit after the full set of adult teeth have grown in for most people.

    Some people never get wisdom teeth, but for those who do, the number may be anywhere from one to four – and, on very rare occasions, more than four, according to a study published in the Journal of the Canadian Dental Association.

    What is the probability of having more than four wisdom teeth?

    Reasons I heard for getting one's wisdom teeth out is that there might be a gap between the last tooth and the wisdom tooth allowing for foods to get trapped, but won't taking out the wisdom tooth just make a bigger gap? What percentage of people get their wisdom teeth taken out, and is it necessary?

    Why, when you conduct more probability experiments, does the experimental probability get closer to the theoretical probability the more you do it?
