Learning Outcomes
- Students will be able to compare the thirds of the crown and roots.

- Students will be able to summarize morphological features.
- Students will be able to compare crown morphology of anterior and posterior teeth.
Division into Thirds & Anatomical Crown Morphology
- Division into Thirds: Teeth are divided into thirds for precise description, naming specific locations like proximal contacts.
- Line Angles: Formed by the junction of two crown surfaces. Names are derived from combining surface names, modifying "al" to "o" in the first. Follow this order: mesial, distal, facial/lingual, and occlusal/incisal.
- Point Angles: Formed where three surfaces meet. The name combines the surfaces and are used to describe specific landmarks along the tooth.
Comparative Tooth Anatomy
- Overall: Study of tooth structure similarities and differences. The crowns and roots of teeth are divided into thirds.
- Measurement: Numerous measurements are described (e.g., lengths, diameters, curvature).
- Terminology: Precise terminology is essential (e.g., line angles, point angles). Multiple figures and examples of teeth are referenced for illustration throughout the study notes.
- Illustrations: Many figures and diagrams are referenced to demonstrate anatomical landmarks (e.g., different views of teeth, diagrams of tooth division)
Anatomical Crown Morphology
- Landmarks: Precise descriptions of various elevations (cusps, tubercles) and depressions (fossae, sulci) on tooth crowns.
- Terminology: Detailed explanations and examples of specific morphological features.
- Measurements: Table of measurements for teeth of average sizes. Specific directions for taking those measurements.
- Features: Definitions and locations of features like ridges, marginal ridges, fossae, sulci, and fissures.
