16
Q

Mesial view: buccal and lingual cusp tip

A

buccal: in line w/ root bisector
lingual: lingual to the root bisector

17
Q

Distal view: CEJ curvature

A

less on the distal

18
Q

Distal view: DMR

A

more developed than the MMR

19
Q

MMR vs DMR

A

MMR is more cervical than the DMR

20
Q

Occlusal view: occlusal table shape

A

triangular (due to small lingual cusp)

21
Q

Occlusal view: transverse ridge

A

only premolar w/ transverse ridge not crossing occlusal development groove
*larger and longer buccal triangular ridge than lingual

22
Q

Occlusal view: MMR

A

shorter than DMR
45 degree angle slope
resembles canine

23
Q

Occlusal view: DMR

A

longer more prominent
more horizontal
not as great slope towards lingual

24
Q

Occlusal view: fossae

A

mesial pit and distal pit

25
Q

Occlusal view: grooves

A

-central
-mesiobuccal
-mesiolingual developmental
-distobuccal
-distolingual
-distal marginal

26
Q

Describe the root

A

single, straight, narrower on lingual, distal curvature, mesial and distal depressions, *shorter than 2nd PM

27
Q

How many canals and pulp horns

A

1 canal, 2 horns

28
Q

If 2 roots are present, which pulp horn is more dominant?

A

buccal pulp horn
*longitudinal groove separates roots on proximal when 2 are present
