12-19: Most wisdom teeth will begin forming in late adolescents. Today most wisdom teeth need to be removed during their teenage years for several reasons. I would not recommend leaving the wisdom teeth until they erupt unless there is enough room, which is rare today. I would have them evaluated by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.W.

Varies: All teeth develop from a soft tissue bud that shows up as a dark spot on a x-ray. Wisdom teeth buds may be visible on a x-ray in some patients as young as 10. As the bud develops or the tooth grows, the crown or biting surface of the tooth develops, followed by root development. The developing wisdom tooth may begin erupting into the mouth in some patients as early as the age of 12 others never.
