I know this is a stupid question but i am so curious how many teeth are in the average adult?A child?

In the full adult dentition, there are 32 teeth, including the wisdom teeth. They are referred to as numbers, 1-32.





.In the full deciduous dentition (baby teeth) there are 20. They are referred to as letters, A-T.





In a mixed dentition, meaning both baby and adult teeth are present, the amount of teeth can vary.

I know this is a stupid question but i am so curious how many teeth are in the average adult?A child?

Reply:The adult has 32 teeth with 3rd molars, a child has 20....this is all ideal situations.....
