Mesial surface is ___

Distal surface is ___

A

Crown is long and narrow

Mesial surface is straighter

Distal surface is more curved

Incisal view:

Can see small amount of cingulum

17
Q

Premolars: Max vs. Man

A

Cusp size:

Maxillary: two cusps are approx equal size

Mandibular: buccal cusp > lingual cusp

Central groove

Maxillary: centered buccolingually

Mandibular: slightly to the lingual

18
Q

PM Occlusal Outline

A

Occlusal Outline

Mandibular PM1: diamond shaped

Mandibular PM2: square

Maxillary premolars: rectangular (long buccolingually)

19
Q

Max PM1 vs PM2

A

Maxillary Roots:Max PM1: 2 roots

Any separation of root

Max PM2: 1 root

20
Q

Maxillary R vs. L

A

From incisal view Lingual cusp tip offset to mesial

THESE ARE THE ONLY TEETH THAT OFFSET TO MESIAL

Mesial to the rightà it’s a right

Mesial offset of lingual cusp can be viewed from lingual view

Mesial ridge of Lingual cusp is shorter than distal ridge.

21
Q

Mandibular PM1 vs PM2

A

PM1: 2 cusps

Lingual cusp is very small

PM2: 3 cusps

1 buccal and two lingual

Mesiolingual cusp is largest of the two lingual cusps

Distolingual cusp may be indistinct

22
Q

Mandibular PM1 right vs. left

___ ___ ___
___ ____

____ ___ ____

___ degree ___ __ ___

___ ___ on ____

  • Bulk to ___

___ ___ is ___ ___ but some specimens do not have it

A

Small lingual ridge

Transverse ridge

Mesiolingual developmental groove

45 degree mesial marginal ridge

Heavy taper on mesiolingual

Bulk to distal

Mesiolingual notch is normally present but some specimens do not have it

23
Q

Molars

M1 vs M2

A

M1: 5 cusps

  • Maxillary: Cusp of Carabelli
    • On the lingual of the mesiolingual cusp
  • Mandibular: distal cusp (smallest)
    • On the buccal

M2: 4 cusps

24
Q

Molars

Maxillary vs. Mandibular

Incisal View:

Roots:

A

Incisal view

Maxillary are wider buccolingually

Mandibular are wider mesiodistally

Roots

Maxillary: 3 roots

Mandibular: 2 roots

25
Q

Molars R vs. L

Maxillary:

____ ___ ___

___ ____ ___

Mandibular M1: ___ ___

A

R vs. L

Maxillary:

Largestà mesiolingual cusp

Smallestàdistolingual cusp

Mandibular M1: distal cusp

26
Q

Maxillary Molars

A

Maxillary molars

Oblique ridge connects distobuccal cusp and mesiolingual cusp

27
Q

Mandibular Molars M1 vs. M2

Transverse ridges:

M2:

  • Cusps:
  • Occlusal view:
    • _____
    • _____
A

Transverse ridges:

M1: no transverse ridges

M2: 2 transverse ridges

M2:4 cusps of about equal size

Mesiobuccal is largest of 4 cusps

Occlusal view:

Mesial to distal taper

Widest at mesio and narrows in buccolingual dimension twds the distal

Buccal ridge of distobuccal cusp is fairly vertical

Buccal ridge of mesiobuccal cusp tilts lingually

Easier to see down buccal on mesiobuccal cusp
