Hi Doctor,
My daughter is about 20 years old now. But the molar teeth's haven't come yet to her.
Will this cause any issue ?
Will it take further time to grow?
Need your kind advise.
Thanking you in advance.

There are 3 molars on each side of each jaw. Which molar do you refer to? The third molar wisdom tooth comes between the ages of 17 to 21 generally. However it can be delayed. Get an Xray called OPG done and share to rest your fears.

hello sir...
As you didnt mentioned which molar it is... if it is Third molar, no need to worry ...It ll erupt in future or it may get impacted...X-RAY(OPG) is necessary to check out which tooth is missing ..
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for furthur clinical examination and management
If it is the third molar then no need to worry. It may be impacted and may not erupt in many people. An X-ray can be done to check the teeth if required
Hello
A clinical examination is required to assist you anything on this. If it is the third molar that hasn't errupted....it's nothing to worry
An opg might be recommended to see the position of the permanent molars.
