Do "OLD" people ever have teeth grow in, where others were removed.

It is all in the thread title.

I WISH!!!!!!!

can I get an order please!

 

[dademoss]

Not yet, and it's been 20+ years.

 

[Tirediron]

apparently the reason we stop of don't grow new is from a signal in the cells, perhaps the signal changes in some people, or maybe triggered from unorthodox Cub "parking"

No adult teeth develop at birth.

See here

I am thankful that once they are gone they are gone. I am going on 10 months of being pain free. My teeth would have killed me if I hadn't had them pulled.

I have never hear of an adult regrowing teeth. If it has happened to you great, but I really think it just may be wishful thinking maybe.

 

[Pearl]

I've heard of pieces of teeth that were broken off during pulling and they push their way out later!???????????

You and me both, but I am 20+ years.

Well, I’ve only got 5 left.
And haven’t grown any new ones lately.

No, but it is possible to grow additional teeth far into adulthood.
I grew a "Supernumerary Tooth" between my canine and incisor when I was in my 50's.

Definition:
A supernumerary tooth is one that is additional to the normal series and can be found in almost any region of the dental arch.

I thought my gum had receded so far that my jawbone was showing between my teeth and that's when I learned of the term.
The dentist pulled it out and showed it to me.
I shoulda kept it.

Mom tells me she grows new teeth all the time. But she has dementia and she has upper false teeth.

 

[Magus]

It has happened and is rare, but documented.

The only one that pops into my mind was a UFO witness who was taken aboard one and they "repaired him."
Yeah, I know, but he had NO teeth before. it is documented. Maybe I'll think to ask if they'll fix my back next trip out.

 

[Cabin Fever]

Google, "hyperdontia"

 

[Morgan101]

That was way more information than I needed.

YIKES! Run! its a mutant corn grinder!

You never ceases to amaze me!!

I still don't know if it was the result of all the gas I siphoned as a teen, or the 'magic mushrooms' I ate later, but something caused magic to happen.

And I didn't know that braces would help. Just for @Morgan101 :
