A

mesial outline of the crown is almost straight with the mesial outline of the root

A

At birth

23
Q

Statement 1:
from the mesial view, all permanent mandibular posterior teeth resemble a rhombus.
Statement 2:
in relation to the root axis, the crowns of all mandibular posterior teeth are tilted towards the buccal.

A

Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false

A

mandibular 2nd molar

25
Q

A

maxillary first moalr

31
Q

The oblique ridge found on the maxillary first molar is formed by the union of which of the following structures?

A

32
Q

True or False. It is possible for the roots of primary teeth to begin to resorb before they are done erupting.

A

TRUE

33
Q

Eruption can be defined as: 1)The tooth’s emergence through the gingiva 2)When root formation if complete 3)When the First sign of calcification appears 4) The continuous movement from the dental bud to occlusal contact.
