I only had 3. Bottom right never materialized which was a good thing considering it would have been impacted.

I've only got three too.

Both my uppers coming out crooked. One is out and the other I can feel just under the gum.

The bottom third is sitting horizontal and isn't going anywhere.

I'l' get them removed one day but my ortho AND my dentist say they're not really doing any harm and have very simple roots so I can take them out whenever I'm ready.

I never got my wisdom teeth or molar #31 when I broke Molar #30 my lower teeth started to move. So I saved myself some money by not having my wisdom teeth pulled but now I have spent it to be braced and put my teeth back where they belong :(

I was lucky that Wisdom teeth never grew in the bottom of my mouth. However, they grew in on the top and I had to get them removed :x . It was a pain...

I never had my top wisdom teeth. I had the bottoms pulled and it was easy.

I only had the top wisdom teeth come through. The bottoms never did and never will.

I still have one of the top ones and the ther was pulled out with no problems at all.

I didn't know any better at the time. If I had to get them out now, I'd be scared to death! Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
