Q

Which perm. mand. incisor edge is straight and which isn’t? What is specific behind the one that isn’t?

A
  • Incisal edge is straight on the CENTRAL incisor

- Incisal edge of the lateral incisor exhibits a LINGUAL twist to the distal portion.

22
Q

Which perm. mand. incisor has bilateral symmetry and which does not?

A
  • Central incisor exhibits bilateral symmetry

- Lateral incisor exhibits a “twisting” slightly on its root base when viewed from incisal

23
Q

T or F, the crests of the cingulum on both incisors are offset slightly to the DISTAL

A

True, READ IT ONE MORE TIME

24
Q

Explain the lingual surface anatomy on perm. man. incisors

A

Both have inconspicuous lingual surface anatomy compared to their maxillary counterparts

25
Q

Where are the contact areas of the perm. man. incisors?

A

Located in the incisal third, but the central incisor is said to exhibit less incisal embrasure space than the lateral incisor

26
Q

From a proximal view, what is the display of the incisal edge on perm. man. incisors?

A

They display an incisal edge that is lingually positioned in comparison to the height of curvature of the CEJ and their respective root apices.

27
Q

What is special about the incisal ridge on Perm. Mandibular Lateral incisors?

A
  • The incisal ridge will be LINGUAL to the faciolingual bisector of the crown outline in its entirety.
  • However, the Distal end of the ridge will be more toward the lingual than the mesial end.
28
Q

What shape is used to define the crown outline of the facial aspect of perm. man. central incsors

A

Trapezoidal with the longer parallel side at incisal edge

29
Q

Explain the incisal edge at both the mesial and distal incisal line angles of perm. man. central incisors

A
  • Incisal edge is straight and at a right angle
  • Mesial and distal incisal line angles are both said to be sharp (almost 90 degrees)
  • Distal incisal line angle is slightly more rounded than the mesial incisal line angle
30
Q

At which level are the mesial and distal proximal contacts of the Perm. Man. Central incisors?

A

Mesial and distal proximal contacts are at the same level and are within the incisal one-third of the crown

31
Q

After incisal wear in the perm. man. central incisors, where are the proximal contacts?

A

May be very near the incisal edge

32
Q

Explain the incisal one-third of the crown surface? What about the cervical two thirds?

A

Incisal 1/3 - Relatively flat

Cervical 2/3 - Convex

33
Q

Which perm. maxillary incisor is larger and more angular

A

Central is larger and more angular

34
Q

Which perm. maxillary incisor has a straighter root

A

Central incisor has a straighter root, while the lateral incisor has a root that is often curved or pointed to the distal.

35
Q

Describe the shapes of the perm. maxillary incisors at the incisal third

A

Central incisor: fairly flat at incisal third

Lateral incisor: Convexity at incisal third

36
Q

Which of the perm. maxillary incisors is more variable?

A

Central incisor: Exhibits minimal variation

Lateral incisor: One of the most variable permanent teeth

37
Q

Explain location of cingulum in perm. max. incisors

A

Crests of cingulum on both incisors are offset to the distal

38
Q

What are the shapes of the lingual fossa of each of the perm. max. incisors?

A

Central incisor: has a trapezoidal shaped lingual fossa

Lateral incisor: has a triangular shape fossa

39
Q

How much of the lingual surface of the crown does the lingual fossa occupy on the perm. max lateral incisor?

A

The incisal two thirds of the lingual surface of the crown

40
Q

Define the boundaries of the lingual fossa of the perm. max. lateral incisor

A
  1. Linguo-incisal ridge
  2. Mesial and distal marginal ridges
  3. Cingulum
41
Q

How much of the lingual surface occupy on the perm. max. lateral incisor?

A

Cingulum is limited to the cervical 1/3 of the crown and the mesial and distal marginal ridges form a “V” as they flow into the cingulum

42
Q

What is the shape of the lingual fossa of the perm. max. central incisor

A

Wide, shallow “dish-shaped” depression

- Trapezoidal in shape

43
Q

Perm. Max. Central Incisor: What are the cervicoincisal length, Mesiodistal width and Faciolingual depth?

A

Cervicoincisal length: 10.5 mm
Mesiodistal width: 8.5 mm
Faciolingual depth: 7.0 mm

44
Q

T or F, All four cusps are visible from the mesial view on the primary mandibular first molar

A

False, Only from the distal view

45
Q

What all (cusps and roots) is visible from the distal view when looking at the primary mandibular first molar

A

All four cusps are visible from distal view

Both roots are visible from this view

46
Q

Name the 5 cusps from largest to smallest on the primary maxillary second molar

A

Mesiolingual, Mesiofacial, Distofacial, Distolingual and 5th cusp (cusp of carabelli)

47
Q

Where is the distinct transverse ridge of the primary maxillary second molar

A

It involves the triangular ridges of the mesially-positioned cusps

48
Q

Which portion of the primary maxillary first molar is extremely convex?

A

Facial cervical ridge

49
Q

How many roots are evident in the mesial view on the primary maxillary first molar?

A

Only 2 roots are evident from this view because the mesiofacial root is super-imposed over the distofacial root

50
Q

What is the crown outline of the primary maxillary canine

A

Diamond or arrow shaped

51
Q

Explain the cuspal ridge of the primary maxillary canine

A

Slightly distal of the center of the tooth

Mesial cuspal ridge is slightly longer than the distal cuspal ridge
