Insert value list does not match column list: 1136 Column count doesn't match value count

Question

I have this PHP-MySQL insert code:

$sqlTeeth = "INSERT INTO teeth (id_logged, patient_id, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eightteen, nineteen, twenty, twone, twtwo, twthree, twfour, twfive, twsix, twseven, tweight, twnine, thirty, thone, thtwo, date_now) VALUES (:id_logged, :patient_id, :one, :two, :three, :four, :five, :six, :seven, :eight, :nine, :ten, :eleven, :twelve, :thirteen,
            :fourteen, :fifteen, :sixteen, :lone, :ltwo, :lthree, :lfour, :lfive, :lsix, :lseven, :leight, :lnine, :lten, :leleven, :ltwelve, :lthirteen,
            :lfourteen, :lfifteen, :lsixteen)";
        $sqlTeethStmt = $conn->prepare($sqlTeeth);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":id_logged", $id_logged);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":patient_id", $patient_id);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":one", $one);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":two", $two);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":three", $three);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":four", $four);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":five", $five);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":six", $six);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":seven", $seven);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":eight", $eight);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":nine", $nine);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":ten", $ten);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":eleven", $eleven);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":twelve", $twelve);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":thirteen", $thirteen);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":fourteen", $fourteen);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":fifteen", $fifteen);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":sixteen", $sixteen);

        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lone", $lone);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":ltwo", $ltwo);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lthree", $lthree);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lfour", $lfour);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lfive", $lfive);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lsix", $lsix);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lseven", $lseven);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":leight", $leight);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lnine", $lnine);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lten", $lten);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":leleven", $leleven);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":ltwelve", $ltwelve);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lthirteen", $lthirteen);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lfourteen", $lfourteen);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lfifteen", $lfifteen);
        $sqlTeethStmt->bindValue(":lsixteen", $lsixteen);

        $sqlTeethStmt->execute();

When I add something to database, I got this error:

SQLSTATE[21S01]: Insert value list does not match column list: 1136 Column count doesn't match value count at row 1

Any Help is appreciated.

What is not clear? The message is plain and simple: Column count doesn't match value count — B-and-P
It's more than a little worrying that your column list is getting this big. What's going on in there? Is that properly normalized? If this is becoming routine you should investigate using an ORM to encapsulate this for you. — tadman
Check the bindValue(':foo:, $value); if it's field number coincides with your SQL fields — Matt Magallo
I would restructure your database, or are there never (i mean, really never) more columns needed as used in your code? — Ramon Bakker
@androidnation I'd use a development framework like Laravel to help organize this better. They usually have a database layer that allows you to do things like $record->save() instead of this gigantic sprawling amount of code you have here. — tadman

Your database table has 35 columns

id_logged, patient_id, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eightteen, nineteen, twenty, twone, twtwo, twthree, twfour, twfive, twsix, twseven, tweight, twnine, thirty, thone, thtwo, date_now

Where as the values you are passing are 34 columns

VALUES (:id_logged, :patient_id, :one, :two, :three, :four, :five, :six, :seven, :eight, :nine, :ten, :eleven, :twelve, :thirteen,
        :fourteen, :fifteen, :sixteen, :lone, :ltwo, :lthree, :lfour, :lfive, :lsix, :lseven, :leight, :lnine, :lten, :leleven, :ltwelve, :lthirteen, :lfourteen, :lfifteen, :lsixteen)

This mismatch of columns is giving you the error.

You forgot to pass the value for date_now column. once you pass it error will be resolved
