Canine tooth ID 2

what is the function of canines

holding and tearing function, being the most stable teeth in the mouth because of their thick crown, smooth & pointed shape, and strong anchorage

large or small pulp chamber

large

located where in the mouth

corner

what is canine eminence 

extra bulk of alveolar bone overlying the roots of the maxillary canines on the labial aspect

what can be mistaken for exostosis

canine eminence

how many lobes form the canines

4 total, three facial and one lingual, lingual lobe is much larger and thicker than the incisors

long and narrow crown

mandibular canine

smooth and convex facial surface

mandibular canine

mesial cusp ridge shorter than distal cusp ridge

mandibular & maxillary canine

mesial surface nearly flat and straight

mandibular canine

distal surface concave at the cervical third

mandibular

distal surface is more concave at cervical third than mesial surface

maxillary

flatter, smoother lingual surface, similar to canines

mandibular

cingulum, ridges, and grooves not as prominent comparing canines

mandibular

what canine is wedge-shaped from the mesial/distal view

mandibular

CEJ curvature is less than on the incisors

mandibular

mesial and distal contact areas are slightly more incisal

mandibular

cusp tip and ridges are on center or slightly lingual

mandibular

disolingual twist

mandibular

labioincisal wear

mandibular

root slightly tipped distally

mandibular

root tapers lingually

maxillary

narrow mesiodistally and wide labiolingually

mandibular

bifurcation or two root canals within a single-rooted canine joint together at the apex

mandibular

short and wide crown

maxillary

prominent labial ridge due to development of larger middle lobe

maxillary

well developed cingulum; largest of all anterior teeth

maxillary

well developed lingual ridge runs from cingulum to cusp tip

maxillary

lingual ridge separates mesial and distal fossae

maxillary

attrition on incisal edge

maxillary

greatest labiolingual bulk of all anterior teeth

maxillary

contact areas located more cerivcally

maxillary

distal contact area located more cervically than mesial contact area

maxillary

bulky cusp tip

maxillary

cusp and cusp ridges lay more facially

maxillary

linguoincisal wear

maxillary

lingual aspect narrower than labial

maxillary

conical shape with blunt root apex

maxillary

tapers towards the lingual surface

maxillary

distal bend may be seen in apical third

maxillary

narrower and longer crown

mandibular

cingulum, ridges and grooves more prominent

maxillary

cusp tip may be positioned more facially

maxillary

linguoincisal wear

maxillary

labioincisal wear

mandibular

contact areas slightly more incisal

mandibular

roots are flatter with a more pointed apex
