Premolars Week 4A Prof Q Wessels PhD (Anatomy), PhD (HSE), FHEA Outcomes o Numbering, position, and eruption time table o Describe the general geometry and characteristics o Provide a detailed description of the tooth from all the aspects (including the root) o Describe any anatomical variation might be present Maxillary Maxillary Premolar o The premolars succeed the deciduous molars o The maxillary first and second premolars and the mandibular first premolars are developed from four lobes - like the anterior The buccal surface of a maxillary right first teeth premolar o 2 cusps and normally 2 roots Maxillary Premolar o Lingual cusp is shorter than facial cusp o Tip of the lingual cusp is located slightly toward the mesial side of the midline The lingual surface of a maxillary right first premolar Maxillary Premolar The mesial surface of a The distal surface of a maxillary right first maxillary right first premolar premolar o Crown similar in appearance to a maxillary canine but: o Crown is shorter and narrower Maxillary Premolar The hexagonal occlusal surface of a maxillary right first premolar Maxillary Premolar Maxillary first premolar has two pulp horns, one for each cusp, and two root canals, one for each root (Sometimes only one undivided root is present Maxillary Premolar A: Mesial view of a maxillary right first premolar demonstrating single root and mesial crown concavity B: Mesial view of a maxillary right second premolar demonstrating single root and no mesial crown concavity The crown and root variations of the maxillary first premolar teeth Nagaş, I.
