28
Q

what are the differences between the distal view and the mesial view of the maxillary first premolars

which dimension is the maxillary first premolars larger in from occlusal view: BL or MD

A

BL > MD

32
Q

how many ridges make up each cusp on the maxillary first premolars

A

4 ridges each

33
Q

where is the buccal triangular ridge of the maxillary first premolars located from the occlusal view

A

from the central developmental groove to the middle cusp

34
Q

where is the lingual triangular ridge of the maxillary first premolars located from the occlusal view

A

from the central developmental groove to the lingual cusp

35
Q

what is the difference between the buccal and lingual triangular ridges from the occlusal view of the maxillary first premolars

A

lingual less prominent and angled not straight

36
Q

what is a triangular ridge

A

prominent elevation, triangular in cross-section, which extends from the tip of a cusp towards the central portion of the occlusal surface of a tooth

37
Q

what ridges are visible from the maxillary first premolars occlusal view

A
  • mesial and distal marginal ridges
38
Q

what grooves are visible from the maxillary first premolars occlusal view

A

-central developmental groove
- mesial marginal ridge developmental groove
- mesiobuccal and distobuccal supplemental groove

39
Q

what pits and fossa are visible from the maxillary first premolars occlusal view

A

mesial and distal developmental pits
mesial and distal triangular fossa

40
Q

what does the root from the buccal (MD) aspect of the maxillary first premolar resemble

A

the root of the canine

41
Q

describe the root of the maxillary first premolar in cross section

A

broad BL, narrow MD
- kidney shaped
- mesial developmental depression

42
Q

how many pulp horns and pulp canals are there in the maxillary first premolar

A

2 pulp horns and 2 pulp canals ( buccal is larger canal)

43
Q

what is a distinct feature to help identify the maxillary first premolar

A

the mesial marginal ridge developmental groove on the occlusal surface

44
Q

what are the main differences between the maxillary first premolar and the maxillary second premolar

A
  • smaller
  • more rounded
  • single rooted
  • more shape variations
45
Q

what are the differences from the buccal view from the maxillary first premolar and the maxillary second premolar

A
  • MB and DB line angles are less prominent
  • buccal cusp ridge not as obvious
  • buccal developmental depressions not as developed
46
Q

compare the MB cusp arm to DB cusp arm of the maxillary second premolar from the buccal view

A

MB cusp arm is shorter than the DB cusp arm

47
Q

what is the difference between the lingual view of the maxillary first premolar and the maxillary second premolar

A

lingual cusp is longer in the second premolar so less visibility of the buccal cusp lingually
