3 years old
Where are the permanent anterior teeth developing during the primary dentition? What about the permanent posteriors?
LINGUAL to the primary roots!…posteriors-in the furcation of the primaries.
In the primary maxillary lateral incisor-incisal view, the incisal ridge is curved toward the _______ surface.
facial
In a facial view of the primary mandibular central incisor, what shape is the incisal ridge?
STRAIGHT
In a facial view of the primary mandibular central incisor, is this tooth considered symmetrical? Also what is the proportion of crown to root?
YES… root length is 2x the crown length
What is the MOST UNIQUE feature of a the primary maxillary canine from a facial view?? ALSO what is the overall crown outline?
The MESIAL ridge is LONGER than the distal ((usually the opposite))…outline is diamond or (arrow)

somewhat RHOMBOIDAL
Which has the bigger oblique ridge? Primary max 1st or 2nd molar?
2nd molar!!
