No: No, cannot grow back. If you had an extra tooth (supernumerary) that was not removed, that one could emerge. For best results with wisdom teeth, make sure you are evaluated and treated by a board certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon.

No: Not true. There are only one set of adult teeth. Fortunately you will not get them back.

No: Once an adult tooth has been removed, it is gone for good. Your wisdom teeth won't grow back.
