B. Facial
C. Palatal
D. Occlusal
E. Proximal

A

E. Proximal

Explanation​: Proximal surface = the surface of a tooth which faces toward an adjoining tooth in the same arch

221
Q

The mandibular 2nd premolar in general erupts ___ the mandibular 1st premolar erupts

A. Before
B. After
C. At the same time

222
Q

Which of the following would be of greatest value in distinguishing between a primary mandibular 2nd molar and a permanent mandibular 1st molar?

A. Number of roots
B. Number of cusps
C. Arrangement of grooves on the occlusal surface

D. Mandibular canine erupts before the maxillary canine

A

C. Maxillary 1st molar erupts before the mandibular 1st molar
