incisal

Q

A

proximal contact are
- area of proximal height of contour of the mesial or distal surface of a tooth that touches the adjacent tooth

Q

A

interdental papillae
gingival tissue occupying the interdental (interproximal) space

Q

A

mesio-buccal cusp
cusp = an elevation on the crown making a divisional part of the occlusal surface

Q

A

triangular fossa
cusp = an elevation on the crown making a divisional part of the occlusal surface

Q

A

central fossa
cusp = an elevation on the crown making a divisional part of the occlusal surface

Q

A

lingual fossa
fossa = an irregular depression or concavity in the crown of the tooth

Q

A

oblique ridge
a ridge which crosses the occlusal surface of some maxillary molars in an oblique manner

Q

A

marginal ridge
an elevation of enamel which forms the mesial/distal margin of the occlusal surface of the tooth

Q

A

oblique ridge
ridge which crosses the occlusal surface of some maxillary molars in an oblique manner

Q

A

cingulum
convexity on the cervical 1/3 of an anterior tooth

Q

A

tubercle
small elevation on the crown made by extra enamel

Q

A

distal pit

Q

A

central pit

Q

A

line angle
where two surfaces meet

Q

A

angle
where two lines meet

Q

how do you tell the difference between the mesial and distal angle

A

mesial angle is mostly sharper than the distal angle
