final canines

Question 1

facial shape?

Answer 1

pentagon

Question 2

mesial or distal cusp ridge is shorter?

Answer 2

mesial cusp ridges shorter

Question 3

vertical labial ridges are prominent or not? more so on max or mand?

Answer 3

prominent, common on Max

Question 4

crowns are wider in what dimension

Answer 4

FL than MD (same as mand incisors)

Question 5

crown outlines are more ____ on the distal and ____ on mesial

Answer 5

convex on distal and flat on mesial

Question 6

distal contacts and mesial contacts?

Answer 6

distal= more cervical
mesial= incisal third (or junction of incisal and middle)

Question 7

roots are wider ____ than _____?

Answer 7

wider FL than MD

Question 8

If roots are bent they bend in apical third to distal, BUT what tooth root is more likely to be straight?

Answer 8

mandibular canine

Question 9

canine roots are longer or shorter than crown?

Answer 9

considerably longer

Question 10

cervical lines on facial and lingual curve towards?

Answer 10

the apex

Question 11

canines are what shape from proximal veiw?

Answer 11

triangular (like incisors)

Question 12

facial and lingual crests of curvature are?

Answer 12

in the cervical third

Question 13

what is the shape of lingual outlines? marginal ridges?

Answer 13

S-shaped with concave lingual fossa and convex cingulum; marginal ridges are more vertical than horizontal

Question 14

incisal edges run from the ____ to the _____ contact areas?

Answer 14

mesial to distal

Question 15

are facial or lingual outlines more broadly rounded on canines? why?

Answer 15

facial outlines more broadly rounded than lingual due to lingual convergence

Question 16

both Max and Mand overal dimensions?

Answer 16

longer incisocercially then MD; BUT the MD dimensions are narrower on mand canines

Question 17

difference between Max and mand mesial crown outline?

Answer 17

Max have a mesial crown outline convex (nearly flat) verses mandibular; Mand mesial outline is less convex and aligned with outline of root

Question 18

difference between Max and mand distal crown outlines?

Answer 18

distal outline of max canine is more concave in the cervical third

Question 19

Max or mand has a more pointed/acute angle formed by the cusp ridges?

Answer 19

Max= pointed= 105= sharper cusp
mand= broad= 120= less pointy

Question 20

when the mandibular canine is held with the long axis vertical, the mesial cusp ridge is?

Answer 20

horizontal

Question 21

lingual ridges that separate the mesial and distal fossae are more prominent on Max or mand?

Answer 21

Max

Question 22

cingula location on canine?

Answer 22

Max= large and centered
mand= slightly distal

Question 23

on mandibular canines, the distal cusp ridge bends?

Answer 23

distolingually

Question 24

incisal ridges on maxillary canines are straighter?

Answer 24

MD

Question 25

what half of the max canine is compressed in incisal view?

Answer 25

distal half of crown

Question 26

cusp tip of max is labial or lingual to root axis line?

proximal view

Answer 26

max canine is most likely ON or labial to root axis

*mand cusp tip is lingual or on root axis line
