I'm still growing mine, and I still have another four molars to go! My mouth is so small that my jaw would probably have to be broken to fit all of my teeth in (including the four molars that I don't have grown in yet).

That's why they have to be pulled, lol!

My dad told me that when his first molar, or wisdom tooth or whatever came in, he had the dentist go ahead and pull out all the others that hadn't come in yet to shave more trips to the dentist's office, and to go ahead and get it all over with.

My mom told me that her mouth was already so crowded that one wisdom tooth that came in actually came in sideways (the top of it facing the inside of her cheek) because it had no where else to go.

I guess I'll just have to wait and see with mine.

If I don't get mine pulled out, that's probably how my teeth are gonna be! And to think I already had braces...

Lol, I escaped the deadly fate of braces!

My dentist (at the time) thought I was getting a bit of an overbite, and might have to get braces (when my mom was a girl, she had a really bad overbite, and such big buckteeth, kids would call her "Beaver", and she had braces too), but when the orthodontist saw me, he asked me if I sat with my jaw resting on my fist (like my mouth right on top of my knuckles), and I told him yes, because that's how I sat when I was bored, and being in public school at the time, and being bored a lot, I sat like that a lot. He told me to stop doing that, and my teeth would be alright, and that I didn't get braces!

Lol, and my friend who had them was SO disappointed too!

Well, I do have one good thing of already having braces (seriously, they're out)...

I don't have to suffer the so-called "braceface angst" during high school.

I don't believe I've lose anything that stuff either, and I don't recall getting anything knocked out by any dentist either. But I'm fine.

Me either. Lucky for me, they came out before high school.

I havn't got my wisdom teeth yet either.

But I do still have my tonsils, I agree with Songas statement about that.

As for the Apendix (which I also still have) here is a bit of interesting info. regarding that one.

‘Although it used to be believed that the appendix had no function and was an evolutionary relic, this is no longer thought to be true. Its greatest importance is the immunological function it provides in the developing embryo, but it continues to function even in the adult … . The function of the appendix appears to be to expose circulating immune cells to antigens from the bacteria and other organisms living in your gut. That helps your immune system to tell friend from foe and stops it from launching damaging attacks on bacteria that happily co-exist with you.’1 James also mentioned why the appendix can be removed without harming us: ‘By the time you are an adult, it seems your immune system has already learned to cope with the foreign substances in the gastrointestinal tract, so your appendix is no longer important. But defects in [the appendix and other] immune sampling areas may be involved in autoimmune diseases and intestine inflammation.

I still have my tonsils and appendix, and my third molars (wisdom teeth) have yet to arrive.. my first evolutionary biology professor in college theorized that the loss of the third molar was the next step in evolution, as some people are already being born without ever developing them

So I'm a throw back in evolution? Foo :stick_out_tongue:.

That theory is just as odd to me as one scientist who said we disabled people should not have babies, because we weren't "meant to be alive" without help when we were born, and we were just passing on bad DNA and it would someday mean the end of the human race..or something *rolls eyes* -.- (I know it nearly has nothing to do with the topic, I just had to vent, they made me so mad in so many ways);.;

Theories are weird weird things sometimes, people will try to say they are fact to push whatever cause they are behind..it's human nature I guess.
It's funny how the tiny issue of appendixes is so debated about by different faiths, I never knew that :confused:
