"Hypodontia describes a situation where the patient is missing 6 teeth or less, excluding the 3rd molars or wisdom teeth." - this article

"Absence of one or more wisdom teeth is an example of hypodontia." -Wikipedia article on wisdom teeth

This is--at best--confusing. Could someone with dental knowledge fix this? Nkb 1/2/10 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.141.137.105 (talk) 15:03, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. This article doesn't say what typical numbers of human teeth are. Nor does the article on hyperdontia. Nor apparently does the very long "Tooth (human)" article (which doesn't start discussing specifically human teeth until the third paragraph, with three of the four introductory paragraphs not focusing on human teeth). (Article on human teeth? Let's write about sharks, beavers, voles, mice, guinea pigs, and rabbits.) — President Lethe (talk) 06:50, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
