Deciduous Maxillary 1st and 2nd Molars Flashcards
The CEJ of the deciduous maxillary 1st molar dips more cervically on the (mesial/distal) half
mesial
T/F the deciduous maxillary 1st molar has a mesiobuccal buldge
t
The MD(L) dimension is (larger/smaller) than the MD(B) dimension for deciduous maxillary 1st molar
smaller
Why is the occlusal table for the deciduous maxillary 1st molar so narrow
because there is little space between the cusps (minimal intercuspal space)

3- Buccal, distobuccal, and central grooves
The deciduous maxillary 1st molar resembles which permanent tooth
maxillary premolar (but has roots of a molar)
Mesial contact of deciduous maxillary 1st molar
much more gingival than the distal due to prominent buccal ridge
Distal contact of deciduous maxillary 1st molar
More occlusal than mesial
