  2. Maxillary first molar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxillary_first_molar

    Both maxillary first molars have the same letter; "D". However, the right molar has the symbol "┘" underneath it. The left molar has "└" underneath it. In the international system of notation two numbers are used to identify the tooth. The right deciduous maxillary first molar is known as "54", and the left one is known as "64".

    In some cases the overjet is reversed (<0mm) and the mandibular incisors lie anterior to the maxillary incisors; Molar Relationship. Molar relationship classification, observed when locating the mesial buccal cusp of the maxillary first molar and buccal groove of the mandibular first molar.

    The mandibular first molar is the tooth located distally from both the mandibular second premolars of the mouth but mesially from both mandibular second molars. It is located on the mandibular arch of the mouth, and generally opposes the maxillary first molars and the maxillary 2nd premolar. This arrangement is known as Class I occlusion.

  5. Malocclusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malocclusion

    The malocclusion classification is based on the relationship of the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first molar and the buccal groove of the mandibular first molar. If this molar relationship exists, then the teeth can align into normal occlusion. According to Angle, malocclusion is any deviation of the occlusion from the ideal. [4]

  6. Cusp (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cusp_(anatomy)

    Molars normally possess either four or five cusps. In certain populations the maxillary molars, especially first molars, will possess a fifth cusp situated on the mesiolingual cusp known as the Cusp of Carabelli. One other variation of the upper first premolar is the 'Uto-Aztecan' upper premolar.

  7. Dental arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_arch

    The dental arches are the two arches (crescent arrangements) of teeth, one on each jaw, that together constitute the dentition.In humans and many other species, the superior (maxillary or upper) dental arch is a little larger than the inferior (mandibular or lower) arch, so that in the normal condition the teeth in the maxilla (upper jaw) slightly overlap those of the mandible (lower jaw) both ...

  9. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    There are 32 permanent teeth and those of the maxillae (on the top) erupt in a different order from permanent mandibular (on the bottom) teeth. Maxillary teeth typically erupt in the following order: (1) first molar (2) central incisor, (3) lateral incisor, (4) first premolar, (5) second premolar, (6) canine, (7) second molar, and (8) third molar.
