Canines Flashcards
Canines general
Longest tooth 6,11,22,27 Support lip and cheeks Cut pierce food Protect posterior teeth= canine protected occlusion =canine guidance
Canines general morphology
Mesial ridge shorter than distal Pentagon facial outline Labial ridge is bigger in maxillary Labiolingual distance larger than mesiodistally Distal contact is more cervical More convex to distal Mesial CEJ is more curved than distal Facial Heights of contour on cervical 1/3 Lingual contour more curved
Canines from labial
3 facial growth lobes
1 lobes for cingulum
Maxillary mesial contour is convex =bigger shoulders
Mandibular mesial contour is flat=inline with root
Mandibular crown appears bent dis tally
Maxillary cusp tip is sharper=longer mesial ridge
Canine proximal contact
Mandibular contacts are more Incisal
Distal contact is on Incisal middle third junction
Mesial contact is on Incisal third
Distal contact of maxillary is most cervical =in middle third
Canine proportion
Maxillary canines has longest root to crown ratio
Maxillary is the longest tooth in the mouth
Mandibular has longest crown
Last teeth to be lost to decay
Canines roots
Maxillary have sharper apex
Maxillary bend dismally more
Mandibular apex more blunt
Canine lingual
Lingual ridge is larger in maxillary
Maxillary will have mesial and distal fossae
Mandibular with 1 fossae
Mandibular will have wear on labial half of tooth
Maxillary cingulum is larger=centered
Mandibular cingulum shifted distal=Distolingual twist
Canines proximal
Maxillary is wider Maxillary cusp is facial Mandibular cusp is lingual Maxillary facial contour is more Incisal and prominent Mandibular CEJ curves are bigger
