Hi..
Thanks for the query.

Well as per your explanation it looks like you can qualify 14 points as the front teeth bags one point each, one point each for the premolars and 2 points each for the molars..

Wisdom teeth also has 2 point each if they are well developed..
If they are not well developed they have 1 point each..

Secondly it comes true only if both upper and lower teeth are present and if they are decayed they should be in reparable condition..

So if all your other teeth are in healthy condition and you already have wisdom teeth and second molars removed then you have a possibility of getting 14 points..

But first I need to see a full mouth x ray and a picture of all your teeth so that I can give you an appropriate idea that you will get 14 qualifying points or not..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
