When do wisdom teeth usually come in?
6 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
They usually don't.: In modern man, we usually don't have enough room for our wisdom teeth to erupt into a normal position in the mouth. They are referred to as being 'impacted' and a recommendation is usually made to have them removed. Wisdom teeth are fully formed by the mid-to late teen years, but may be removed before that time.

Wisdom teeth.: The wisdom teeth erupt when they are ready to. Usually between 15yrs and 20 yrs. There is no exact time for them to come in only a range of years.

15-21: Varies much. For best results, wisdom teeth should be evaluated and treated by a board certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon.
