What are incisors?

Most adults normally have eight incisors (four upper, four lower). These are the front-most teeth used for cutting food. These are the teeth that appear first in young children.

What are canines?

These are the slightly pointed teeth situated on each side of the incisors. Because they resemble the fangs of a dog (canine) they acquired that name. Sometimes they are called cuspids or “eye teeth,” because they sit directly below the eye sockets.

What are premolars?

These are located between the canines and the molars in the back of the mouth. Premolars have two pointed cusps on their biting surface. Which is why they are sometimes referred to as bicuspids. The premolars are considered transitional teeth, guiding food from the canines to the molars in back for chewing.

What are molars?

Molars, in the back of the mouth, are used for grinding our food. The typical adult has twelve molars, 4 of which are your wisdom teeth. Each side of the upper and lower jaw has three molars. These are our largest teeth and designed to sustain the force used for chewing, grinding and clenching.

At the ages of 18 to 25 the final 4 molars will begin to erupt in the furthest 4 corners of your mouth, which are your wisdom teeth. Most will start to experience pain and discomfort as they start to push through the gumline.

Unlike most adult teeth, wisdom teeth can cause a bit of an issue if they erupt partially or sideways. This makes them harder to clean, but also causes other oral health issues known as impacted wisdom teeth.
