COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
◉ Mand Lateral incisors- lingual. Answer: Lingual form-poorly
formed
Cingulum-off centered toward distal
◉ Mand Lateral incisors- incisal. Answer: 1. Incisal edge-is not at
approximate right angle to a line bisecting the crown labiolingually.
◉ Max canine- labial. Answer: Crown is narrower mesiodistally than
maxillary central incisor (the mandibular
canine more so than the maxillary canine)
Cusp tip is in a line with the center of the root
Mesial and distal cusp ridge-mesial cusp is shorter
Shallow depressions-mesially and distally (dives labial lobes)
,Of the labial lobes, the middle labial lobe is more developed
Developed Ridge runs from tip of cusp to cervical line
7. Mesial half of the crown resembles a portion of an incisor whereas
the distal half resembles a portion of a premolar
◉ Max canine- lingual. Answer: 1. Cingulum is better developed than
maxillary central
2. Marginal ridges are strongly developed
3. Lingual ridge extends to point near the Cingulum
Mesial and Distal lingual fossae located between marginal ridges and
lingual ridge
◉ Max canine- mesial. Answer: Greater labiolingual measurement
than any other anterior teeth
2. Wedge-shaped
3. Slightly convex a cervical third to the tip of the cusp
, ◉ Max canine- distal. Answer: Shows somewhat same form as the
mesial surface
◉ Max canine- incisal. Answer: Thicker labiolingually than any other
anterior tooth
Labiolingual dimension is greater than the mesiodistal dimension
3. Ridge of middle labial lobe is very noticeable
◉ Mand canine- Labial. Answer: Height of contour on cervical one-
third
Narrower crown mesiodistally than maxillary crown (canine)
Cusp ridges-mesial cusp ridge is shorter than distal cusp ridge
◉ Mand canine- lingual. Answer: Cingulum is poorly developed
Marginal ridges are less distinct
