It's funny because I have the opposite of a lot of physical autism symptoms, I lost my teeth early.

I lost my first tooth when I was 4 years old, and I was 10 when I lost my last one. My wisdoms are starting to poke through now, but I'm having oral surgery to have all 4 taken out in two weeks because they're all impacted. I can't get braces until I have the surgery. :roll:

I don't see how a neurological developmental disorder like autism can physically affect one's teeth development. Maybe with down's syndrome but not autism.

I started losing baby teeth when I was 4, and by the time I was 10 I had no more baby teeth left. My wisdom teeth began coming through when I was 14. Not sure if this is early or average?

It's actually early. I don't hear about wisdom teeth coming in at 14 too often.

I lost all my baby teeth by the time I was 12; that's considered "average."

I lost my first tooth when I was 5 1/2; that's considered "average."

I never developed wisdom teeth (which is "abnormal").

I lost some late. When I had my 1st appointment to get braces the guy mentioned that I still had a baby tooth he would remove when I had my next appointment. It fell out before I saw him again so he didn't have to remove it. I was in 8th grade at the time.

Yes! I was still losing teeth in 8th grade. I don't *think* I lost any in 9th grade, but not positive there.

I was also late to have to start shaving.

I don't remember exact ages but I was generally early in tooth development.

I had braces at 11-12 I think so that would put me having lost all my baby teeth around 8-10.

My wisdom teeth started erupting at 14-16. They were yanked later..17ish?

I had all my teeth before graduating highschool. (Minus what was yanked lol)

I hit puberty early despite losing some baby teeth late. I started getting shaved in 6th grade thou I didn't lose all my baby teeth till 8th when I was getting ready to get braces. I also started masturbating early, losing my hair in my mid 20s, & started getting alittle grey hair when I hit 30. I think I physically age faster but losing my baby teeth was the one exception.

I only had 3 wisdom teeth, which is considered normal. They never came in or fully formed. at 19 the impactions gave me headaches and they were surgically removed, not just pulled. I saw the xrays-growing sideways inside my jawbone and would never have come out.

i have no diea when I stopped dropping baby teeth. If i had to make a wild guess i would say 11.

I lost 4 to othodonture, and now I'm slowing losing them one by one to damge form a lifetime of toothgrinding. dentures give me severe tmj(jaw joint) pain, even when they fit right, an dbothe the crowns I had led to painful tooth loss. I won't consider implants even if i had the money.

I had a 'baby tooth' that stayed in my mouth for a long time, probably until I was around 16. I remember the specific occasion when it finally fell out; I was watching a movie, and funnily enough the plot of the movie vaguely revolved around the subject of 'coming of age'.

I was an early bloomer, so no. I had all my adult teeth shortly before I turned 12 and
found out that I had AS one year later.

I lost my last baby tooth when I was twelve. I had to have it pulled because it was on top of my adult tooth. My wisdom teeth came in when I was 21. They are after me to get my wisdom teeth pulled, but I won't do it. I have no problems with my teeth and want to keep it that way.
