Q

How does the mandibular first pre molar resemble the canines?

A

The Buccolungual measurement is similar to that of the canine

-The occlusal surface slopes sharply lingual in the cervical direction

-Mesiobuccal cusp ridge is SHORTER than the distal buccal cusp ridge!

-The occlusal outline resembles the canine incisal outline

Q

Resembles the 2nd pre-molar in that…

A

-Outline of crown and root from the buccal outline resembles that of the second premolar–except for the longer cusp!

  • Mesial and distal contact areas are new the same level
  • Curvature of the cervical in the mescal and distal are similar

-tooth has more than one cusp!

  • Though generally shorter in length than the 2nd premolar, the root is closer in length than that of the 2nd pre molar

Q

What type of shape is the crown?

A

The crown is a trapezoidal shape, with the shorter of the two sides at the CEJ.

Cusp tip is pointed and slightly mesial to a center line

Q

Lingual Aspect

A

Crown tapes toward the lingual and a significant portion of the mesial and distal surfaces are visible from this aspect.

Lingual cusp tip is always small, little more than a cingulum.

Occlusal surface is sloped toward the lingual down to the lingual cusp.

Majority of occlusal surface is viewable.

MOST OF THE CROWN IS MADE UP OF THE MIDDLE BUCCAL LOBE giving it an appearance like a mandibular canine.

Q

From the lingual aspect, what is a characteristic of the mandibular first pre molars?

A

The mesiolingual developmental groove- which lies between the mesiobuccal lobe and the lingual lobe and extends onto the occlusal surface.

18
Q

Root

A

Significantly narrower on the lingual, forms a convex ridge from the CEJ to the cervix

Thus, mesial and distal surfaces are visible.

Root has an even taper from the cervix to a pointed apex

19
Q

Mesial Aspect *

A

Corn is roughly rhomboidal from the mesial aspect, this is a characteristic of mandibular posterior teeth.

20
Q

Where is the tip of the buccal cusp located in comparison with the root?

A

Nearly centered over the root

21
Q

Where is the the tip of the lingual cusp located in comparison with the root?

A

Lingual cusp tip is IN LINE with the lingual border of the root, and the lingual outline of the crown is LINGUAL to the outline of the root- overhang

*Differs from all maxillary posterior teeth where the cusp tips are well within the confines of the root trunk!

22
Q

From the mesial aspect, is the buccal outline curved from the cervical line to cusp tip?

A

YES

23
Q

Where is the crest of curvature located on the Buccal?

A

IN THE CERVICAL THIRD or near the junction of the cervical and middle 3rd

This is a characteristic of all mandibular posterior teeth

24
Q

Where is the crest of curvature located on the lingual?

A

IN THE MIDDLE THIRD

-Lingual aspect is less convex than the facial outline

-The distance from the cervix to the lingual cusp tip is 2/3 the distance from cervix to the buccal cusp tip.

25
Q

How much of the occlusal surface is visible from the mesial aspect?

A

Only about 1/2 because of the mesial marginal ridge to the buccal triangular ridge is not as high!

26
Q

How is the curvature of the CEJ on the mesial aspect?

A

Slight curvature towards the occlusal surface, may be straight across.

27
Q

Root on the Mesial Surface

A
  • Root outline tapers from the cervix to the apex IN LINE with the buccal cusp tip.

Lingual outline of the root may be straight and angular with the buccal curved.

28
Q

Root on the Mesial Surface

A
  • Root outline tapers from the cervix to the apex IN LINE with the buccal cusp tip.

Lingual outline of the root may be straight and angular with the buccal curved.

29
Q

Is there a developmental groove on the mesial surface of the root?

A

YES

30
Q

Distal Aspect

A

DISTAL MARGINAL RIDGE IS UP HIGHER ABOVE THE CERVIX THAN the mesial marginal ridge and does not have an extreme slope!

THE distal marginal ridge is confluent with the lingual cusp with no marginal developmental groove

31
Q

Is the distal contact are broader than mesial?

A

YES

32
Q

TRUE or FALSE: THE distal root surface exhibits less convexity than the mesial

A

Flase

33
Q

Distal Root

A

Does contain a shallow developmental depression- but rarely contains a deep one.

34
Q

From the occlusal aspect, what shape is the Mandibular 1st pre-molar?

A

Diamond- but lots of variation in shapes.

35
Q

All mandibular 1st premolars have the following aspects:

A

Middle Buccal Lobe makes up the majority of the crown

Buccal Ridge is Prominent

Mesiobuccal and distobuccal ridges are prominent

36
Q

All mandibular 1st premolars have the following aspects:

A

Curvatures representing the M&D contact areas are broad, but broader on distal

Crown converges sharply to lingual

Marginal ridges are prominent

Lingual cusp is small

Buccal triangular ride is dominant on occlusal view with the lingual triangular ridge small!

37
Q

What surrounds the mesial and distal transverse ridges?

A

Mesial and Distal fossae

38
Q

At the base these fossa, there appears to be a what?

A

A developmental groove and or pit

39
Q

On the mesial fossa

A

mesial developmental groove

40
Q

On the distal fossa

A

Distal developmental pit, may also have a distal developmental groove

41
Q

Does the mandibular first premolar have a central groove?

A

NO- thus gives the appearance of “snake eyes” because of prominent mesial and distal fossae and associated pits

42
Q

What is exiting the occlusal surface onto the mesial lingual part of the tooth?

A

a mesiolingual developmental groove- extending out of the mesiolingual fossa

43
Q

What is the shape of the distal 1/2 of the occlusal?

A

semicircular

44
Q

What surface of the crown is visible the most from the occlusal aspect?

A

The buccal surface because crown is tilted towards the lingual.
