Answer
|
|
The tooth at the centre of
a fully developed adult jaw is the |
First molar
|
|
In a permanent maxillary
first molar the buccal developmental groove is parallel to the |
Distobuccal root
|
|
The root tips of the
permanent maxillary first molar often curve towards the |
Centre axis
|
|
The cusp arm of the
mesiopalatal cusp of a typical permanent maxillary first molar is |
Obtuse angled. It is the
most obtuse angled cusp. Hence it is the bluntest cusp of the entire cusps. |
|
The distobuccal and
mesiolingual cusp form has |
Right angled
|
|
The usually missing cusp in
a permanent maxillary second molar, if missing is the |
Distopalatal cusp
|
|
The shortest teeth
occlusocervically in the mandible is the |
Second molar
|
|
In the permanent dentition
the buccal ridges and height of contour forms a “tilited E shaped” pattern in |
Mandibular first molar. The
lingual ridges and the height of contour forms the “U shaped” pattern. |
|
The lingual developmental
groove of the permanent mandibular first molar is aligned with the |
Furcation
|
|
In a maxillary molar the
most indistinct and rounded line angle is the |
Distobuccal
