   Usually, there are 20 primary ("baby") teeth and 32 permanent teeth, the last four being third molars or "wisdom teeth", each of which may or may not grow in. Among primary teeth, 10 usually are found in the maxilla (upper jaw) and the other 10 in the mandible (lower jaw). Among permanent teeth, 16 are found in the maxilla and the other 16 in ...

4. Molar (tooth) - Wikipedia

   The molars or molar teeth are large, flat teeth at the back of the mouth. They are more developed in mammals. They are used primarily to grind food during chewing. The name molar derives from Latin, molaris dens, meaning "millstone tooth", from mola, millstone and dens, tooth. Molars show a great deal of diversity in size and shape across the ...

5. 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 ...

6. Human tooth development - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth_development

   Mandibular teeth erupt in the following order: (1) first molar (2) central incisor, (3) lateral incisor, (4) canine, (5) first premolar, (6) second premolar, (7) second molar, and (8) third molar. Since there are no premolars in the primary dentition, the primary molars are replaced by permanent premolars. [ 48 ]

7. Incisor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incisor

   Children with a full set of deciduous teeth (primary teeth) also have eight incisors, named the same way as in permanent teeth. Young children may have from zero to eight incisors depending on the stage of their tooth eruption and tooth development. Typically, the mandibular central incisors erupt first, followed by the maxillary central ...

8. Dentition - Wikipedia

   The dashes (-) in the formula are likewise not mathematical operators, but spacers, meaning "to": for instance the human formula is 2.1.2.2-3 2.1.2.2-3 meaning that people may have 2 or 3 molars on each side of each jaw. 'd' denotes deciduous teeth (i.e. milk or baby teeth); lower case also indicates temporary teeth.

9. 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".
