the mesiolingual developmental groove on the mandibular 1st premolar extends onto the ___ surface

A

proximal

21
Q

the mesiolingual developmental groove on the mandibular 1st premolar has what affect on the mesial marginal ridge?

A

mandibular 1st premolar

23
Q

for a mandibular 1st premolar, more of the occlusal surface can be seen from the (M/D) than the (M/D)
