Mesial marginal ridge developmental groove present
Maxillary 1st Premolars
Lingual cusp shorter and more pointed than buccal cusp; located mesially
Maxillary 1st Premolars
Mesial concavity of crown and mesial developmental depressions on root
More grooves on mesial side than distal
Maxillary 1st Premolars
Mesial and distal developmental pits and triangular fossae
Maxillary 1st Premolars
Central developmental groove - demarcases lingual and buccal lobes
Maxillary 1st Premolars
