Study Notes

Maxillary Lateral Incisor

  • Pulp chamber anatomy is similar to that of the central incisor
  • In cross-section, the pulp chamber can be triangular, oval, or round in shape

Maxillary Canine

  • Pulp cavity is narrower mesiodistally than labiolingually
  • In cross-section, the pulp cavity has a wedge shape

Maxillary Second Molar

  • Pulp chamber anatomy is similar to that of the maxillary first molar
  • However, the pulp chamber is smaller in mesiodistal section
  • In cross-section, the pulp chamber is oval in shape

Mandibular First Premolar

  • Mostly has one canal, but two canals are possible
  • The shape of the maxillary arch is larger than that of the mandibular arch when the teeth are in maximum intercuspation (maximum bite)
  • During maximum intercuspation, the mesiolingual cusp of the maxillary molars occludes with the central fossae of the mandibular molars
