Dental: what are wisdom teeth?!


Question: Dental: what are wisdom teeth.?
Answers:
They're really smart teeth.

Actually they're teeth which come in last - when you're older - and have lots of wisdom. And there's 4 of them in total, one upper and lower on each side - way in the back of your mouth. And sometimes there's not room for them and they have to be pulled out.

But lucky you! They now have really good anesthetics at the dental surgeon's office which give you a sort of amnesia - you can't quite remember the operation of pulling these things out. And then they're done pulling them, they shoot you with the antidote and you wake up like nothing happened. It's neat. You have a sore mouth for a couple weeks though.
