Wisdom teeth: There is a good chance that the 4th one is impacted as well. Otherwise, it may be missing. Either way, if it's been some time, get an exam at your dentist... You may be due for a cleaning anyway.

X-Ray will show: See your dentist for a thorough evaluation which includes full mouth x-rays or panoramic x-ray which will show the position of all of your wisdom teeth, as well as check for decay, gum line and other dental problems.
