I have not four, but eight wisdom teeth.

I am officially a mutant.

*pokes self* Somehow I thought it would be cooler.

Cripes! ;x If they all come in that could result in some serious bone damage! But man! XD EIGHT! That's gotta be awesome to know. I only had four. But they suspected I had a like.. three extra canines at orthadonists, that never really formed all the way or came down. God knows where they are now.

First off, "colorpencil", your avatar is hilarious. Secondly, many of us are mutants. Has anyone done the "sweet-chewy bread experiment"? Basically you leave a piece of white bread in your teeth and gums for about 20 minutes. I cannot remember exactly which is which, but I think if you cannot taste sweetness, you are a mutant. It has to do with the enzymes and breaking down of bread into simpler molecules.

What happens if the chemical properties of your saliva are different? Zach and Dad have acid reflux because their saliva has an unusually high concentration of something. Would it affect the results?

I've held white bread in my teeth and gums for 20 minutes before and tasted sugar! It just wasn't an intentional holding. More like I really needed to brush my teeth.

Lol. Perhaps they're simply in your mouth somewhere? *crickets chirp* Maybe they've broken down and other bones have absorbed the calcium? Cool, though, three canines! I've only got the four (counting the itty bottom ones), and one of the top ones was sanded down ( ... )

I highly doubt I will have to have my wisdom teeth pulled. I have never heard any mention of it before (to have them out), and I seem to have a large jaw.
