cingulum
a U- or W-shaped ridge at the base of the lingual surface of the crown of the upper incisors and cuspidteeth,
a pointed end where two curves meet, in particular.
cusp
tubercle
. A small elevation of variable size on the crown of a tooth representing a thickened area of enamel or an accessory cusp.
ridge of teeth
any linear elevation on the surface of a tooth and is named according to its location
marginal ridge
transverse ridge
triangular ridge
oblique ridge
fossa
A rounded or angular depression in the occlusal surface of a posterior tooth bordered by the cusp ridges and the occlusal table.
sulcus tooth
The gingival sulcus is an area of potential space between a tooth and the surrounding gingival tissue and is lined by sulcular epithelium.
he slight depression dividing the lobes on an anterior tooth, and running parallel with the long axis.
developmental grove
supplemental groove
minor, auxiliary groove that branches off from a much more prominent developmental groove.
