35
Q

Surface of the posterior tooth which is used for grinding food and the surface of a tooth which occludes with the opposing tooth.

A

Occlusal

36
Q

It is any linear elevation on the surface of the crown of the tooth and is named according to its location.

A

Ridge

37
Q

” A linear, rounded border of enamel that forms the mesial and distal margins of anterior teeth as viewed from the lingual, and the mesial and distal borders of occlusal surfaces on posterior teeth.

A

a.Marginal ridges

38
Q

It is a linear elevation which descends from the tip of the cusp to the central part of the occlusal.
• The slope of each side of the ridge resemble 2 sides of a triangle.

A

Triangular ridge

39
Q

• The only tooth on which an oblique ridge is found is the_____ molar.
• Consists of an elevated prominence on the occlusal surfa ce andextends
obliquely from the tips of the mesiolingual cusp to the distobuccal cusp

A

Oblique ridge
Maxillary

40
Q

The ridge of enamel that extends from the cingulum to the cusp tip on the lingual surface of most cuspids.

A

Lingual ridge

41
Q

Each cusp has____ cusp ridges radiating from its tip.
• They are named according to the direction they take away from the cusp tip (for example, mesial, distal, buccal, or lingual)

A

Cusp ridge

42
Q

The union of a buccal and lingual triangular ridge that crosses the surface of a posterior tooth transversely (roughly 90° to both the buccal and lingual tooth surfaces)

A

Transverse ridge

43
Q

A pointed or rounded elevation of enamel found on cuspids and on the chewing surfaces of bicuspids and molars

A

Cusp

44
Q

Found on the lingual aspect of an anterior tooth.
› It is a convex mount of enamel localized to the cervical one-third of the crown

A

Cingulum

45
Q

“It is a small pinpoint depression found at the junction or terminals of the developmental grooves and named according to its location

A

Pit

46
Q

• A rounded or angular depression of varying size found on the surface of a tooth

A

Fossa

47
Q

Centrally located depression found onthe occlusal surface of molars and mandibular second bicuspids.

A

Central fossa

48
Q

Irregular, shallow depression found on the lingual surfaces of an incisor or cuspid.

A

Lingual fossa

49
Q

Located adjacent to the marginal ridges on the occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth.
› Two types of triangular fossae are mesial and distal

A

Triangular fossa

50
Q

A small linear depression on the surface of a tooth

A

Groove

51
Q

• Fissure between the cusps on the crown of the tooth.

A

Developmental groove

52
Q

A minor, auxiliary groove that branches off from a much more pro minent developmental groove.
• They do not represent the junction of primary tooth parts and gives the occlusal surface a wrinkled appearance

A

Supplemental groove

53
Q

Is one of the primary divisions of a crown;
all teeth develop from four or five lobes.
• are usually separated by readil y identifiable devel opmental grooves

A

Lobe

54
Q

Are small, rounded projections of enamel from the incisal edges of newly erupted anterior teeth.
•The projections wear away soon after eruption

Crown

56
Q


is the lower two thirds of a tooth covered by cementum

junction also known as.

A

Q

A

Enamel
Teeth
“ Cementum
› Dentin
• Pulp

59
Q

The crown and root portion is covered by cementoenamel
junction also known as

A

cervical line.

60
Q

• is the hardest and most highly mineralized substance of the body.
• It is the normally visible dental tissue of a tooth because it covers the anatomical crown and must be supported by underlying dentin

A

Enamel

61
Q

is the substance between enamel or cementum and the pulp chamber
• The bulk of a tooth
• Because it is softer than enamel, it decays more rapidly and is subject to severe cavities if not properly treated, but dentin still acts as a protective layer and supports the crown of the tooth.

A

Dentin

62
Q

is a specialized bone like substance covering the root of a tooth.

Cementum

63
Q

is the central part of the tooth filled with soft connective tissue.
