Wisdom sans teeth
My sister recently had her wisdom teeth removed, causing her the usual distress associated with the process. I was initially surprised to learn that she'd done this because she's a few years younger than me and I hadn't bothered to get mine removed yet since I've never had a problem with them. However, she told me that her dentist had encouraged her to get them taken out because they were impacting her molars. Given that I am about to spend a few months travelling, I thought I'd ask my dentist about that when I saw her today for an Invisalign check-up. After looking at my dental x-rays, she informed me that I actually have no wisdom teeth at all. I'd suspected as much because my mother never got hers either but now I've had it confirmed. She explained that I am the next step in human evolution. Pretty awesome.
