Perm Man 1st Molar, Facial- What is the general outline of the MF cuspal ridges?
Almost a FLAT angle
Perm Man 1st Molar, Facial-What is the most pointed Facial cusp?
the Distal Cusp
Perm Man 1st Molar, Facial–The DF cusp has cuspal ridges that give rise to a more _______ cusp then the MF, but its still ______.
