Lecture 7 - Mandibular Premolars Flashcards
what are the numbers of mandibular premolars on the left
1st- #21
2nd - #20
what are the numbers of the mandibular premolars on the right
1st- #28
2nd - #29
are mandibular premolars succedaneous teeth
yes they replace primary molars
how many lobes do mandibular first premolars develop from
3 facial
1 lingual
how many lobes do second premolars develop from
3 facial
1 or 2 lingual
what is the shape of the mandibular first premolar from the buccal view
trapezoidal
what does the buccal ridge on the mandibular first premolar develop from
the middle buccal lobe
what does the buccal cusp of the mandibular first premolar resemble
mandibular canine but tip is more rounded
describe the mesiobuccal cusp arm and distobuccal cusp arm on the mandibular first premolar
mesial is shorter than distal
describe the mesial and distal outlines from the buccal view of the mandibular first premolar
slightly concave
where are the mesial and distal heights of contour of the mandibular first premolar from the buccal view
middle 1/3
describe the cervical line from the buccal view of the mandibular first premolar
exhibits little curvature
describe the buccal surface of the mandibular first premolar
convex, especially in the middle and cervical third
describe the root of the mandibular first premolar from the buccal view compared to the mandibular canine
3-4 mm shorter and curves distally
where do the crown and root taper of the mandibular first premolar
toward lingual
describe the lingual cusp of the mandibular first premolar
small, may resemble the cingulum of a canine
describe the occlusal surface of the mandibular first premolar from the lingual view
slopes lingually in a cervical direction, visible from lingual view
describe the lingual view of the mandibular first premolar
- convex
- mesial and distal outlines are concave from the cervical margin to the contact areas
what does the mesiolingual developmental groove mark on the mandibular first premolar
demarcates the lingual lobe from the mesiobuccal lobe
- separates mesial marginal ridge from lingual cusp
what aspects of the mandibular first premolar are visible from the lingual view
the lingual, mesial, and distal aspects are visible
describe the root from the lingual view
-tapers to a pointed apex
- developmental depressions or grooves mesially on the root
what is the shape of the mandibular first premolar from the mesial view
rhomboidal in outline
describe the buccal outline of the mandibular first premolar from the mesial view
very convex
where does the buccal cusp tip lie in relation to a line bisecting the midline of the root of the mandibular first premolar from the mesial view
centered on the line
where is the buccal height of contour of the mandibular first premolar from the mesial view
junction of the middle and cervical 1/3
describe the lingual outline of the mandibular first premolar from the mesial view
less convex
where is the lingual height of contour of the mandibular first premolar from the mesial view
middle 1/3
