A system of tooth numbering where the first digit represents the quadrant and the second digit represents the tooth position.

The surface of a tooth that faces towards the midline of the dental arch.

The surface of a tooth that faces towards the cheek or lip.

The surface of a tooth that faces towards the tongue.

The process by which a tooth emerges from the gum and into the oral cavity.

The process of tooth development from its initial formation to its final shape.

The hard, outermost layer of a tooth, covering the crown.

The layer of tissue that forms the bulk of a tooth, located beneath the enamel.

The central developmental groove of the maxillary second premolar is longer and has more supplemental grooves compared to the maxillary first premolar.

The lower first premolar typically has two root canals.

The visible part of the tooth above the gum line is called the clinical crown.

The hardest part of the tooth is the enamel, which is the outer layer covering the crown.

A socket is the bony cavity in the jawbone that houses the root of a tooth.

A developmental groove is a linear depression on the tooth surface formed during tooth development.

A cusp is a pointed or rounded elevation on the chewing surface of a tooth.

The American numbering system assigns the number 25 to the permanent maxillary left second premolar.

The labial surface of the maxillary lateral incisor has a crown shape resembling a trapezoid.

Freshly erupted, unworn central incisors exhibit three prominent bulges on their incisal edge called mamelons.

The mesial marginal ridge of the mandibular central incisor is longer than the distal marginal ridge.

The incisal ridge of the maxillary lateral incisor is positioned slightly lingual to the long axis of the tooth.

The mesial contact area of the maxillary lateral incisor is located at the junction of the incisal and middle thirds of the tooth.

The cusp angle (angle formed by the cusp tip and the two slopes) of the maxillary canine is approximately 110 degrees.

Due to wear and tear (attrition), the incisal edge of maxillary incisors tends to slope lingually.

The maxillary first premolar exhibits a mesial slope of the buccal cusp that is straight and longer than the distal slope.

The transition area of a tooth where one surface ends and another surface begins.

The odontoblasts are the cells that form dentin.

The maxillary first premolar is most likely to have a single pulp horn.

The primary mandibular canines typically exfoliate between the ages of 6 and 7.

The lingual ridge is the ridge located on the linguo-cervical third of anterior teeth.

The heights of contour of the distal surfaces of permanent mandibular central incisors are located in the middle third of the tooth.

The term "premolar" is more accurate than "bicuspid" because premolars can have one, two, or even three cusps.

The mandibular left second molar (permanent) has the FDI number 37.

The buccal cusp is slightly longer than the lingual cusp in the maxillary first premolar.

The mandibular second premolar typically has three cusps: a buccal cusp and two lingual cusps (mesiolingual and distolingual). The buccal cusp is the largest, followed by the distolingual, and then the mesiolingual.

The maxillary canine is considered the 'cornerstone' because of its strong position and role in guiding the occlusion and maintaining arch integrity.

The facial aspect (front portion) of a tooth generally resembles a trapezoid shape.

Mesiolingual grooves can be found on mandibular second premolars. These grooves are on the lingual surface, towards the front of the tooth.

Root bifurcation, where a single root splits into two, is more common in maxillary canines. This helps them withstand forces from chewing.

Maxillary central incisors, when viewed from the biting surface, show a greater mesiodistal measurement (width) than faciolingual measurement (thickness).

Third molars (wisdom teeth) are the most common teeth to be missing congenitally, meaning they never develop.

Mamelons are the three rounded projections on the incisal edge of newly erupted incisors. They fade as the tooth wears down.

A tubercle is a small, rounded protuberance on a tooth, like a mini-bump. It's common on molars, premolars, and sometimes incisors.

The microanatomy of a tooth refers to its internal structure. It includes the enamel, dentin, pulp, cementum, and periodontal ligament.

The occlusal aspect of the upper first premolar includes features like cusps, grooves, fossae, and marginal ridges. It's the chewing surface of the tooth.

The Periodontium is the support structure of a tooth. It consists of the gingiva (gums), cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone.

The lingual aspect of a permanent central incisor has features like the lingual fossa, lingual groove, cingulum, and marginal ridges. This is the inner, tongue-facing side of the tooth.

The FDI system is a method of tooth numbering that uses two digits. The first digit indicates the quadrant (mouth region), and the second digit indicates the tooth within that quadrant.

The lingual aspect of a permanent maxillary canine has features like the cingulum, marginal ridges, and lingual fossa. This is the inner, tongue-facing side of the canine.
