-
Incisors (Maxillary Central):

- Long axis viewed from the side is slightly labial.
- Incisal edge touches the mandibular occlusion rim.
-
Incisors (Maxillary Lateral):
- Long axis viewed from the side is inclined slightly distally.
- Slightly labial.
- Raised approximately 1 mm.
-
Canines:
- Long axis can be vertical or inclined slightly distally.
- Cervical third is inclined buccally.
- Touches the mandibular occlusion rim.
