|
True or False
Canine crowns from the facial view look like a pentagon |
True
they do resemble a five sided pentagon |
|
|
The labial contour of the canine is prominently concave or convex?
|
convex
|
|
|
True or False
Canines are the only teeth with a labial ridge, although premolars have a similar looking ridge called a buccal ridge. |
Both statements are true
|
|
|
the measurement of a max or man canine crown is __________ than it is____________
|
greater labiolingually
mesiodistally |
|
|
True or False
Canines are the only teeth with a labial ridge |
True
|
|
|
Measurement of a max/man canine crown is _________ labi0lingually than mesiodistally
|
greater
|
|
|
Traits of the maxillary canine: Labial View
|
crown wider mesiodistally
sharper cusp angle shorter mesial cusp ridge than distal more cervical contacts mesial of crown bulges beyond root outline pronounced labial ridge more pointed root tip |
|
|
Traits of the mandibular canine: Labial view
|
crown narrower mesiodistally
more blunt cusp angle much shorter mesial cusp ridge than distal almost horizontal mesial cusp ridge contacts more incisal continuous mesial crown outline, little/no bulge less pronounced labial ridge more blunt root tip |
|
|
If you are trying to differentiate the maxillary right from the maxillary left canine (labial view) you would note that the crown outline of the max canine is more _________on distal
|
Convex
|
|
|
If you are trying to differentiate the man canine from the max canine (labial view) the crown outline is more convex on _________ , the mesial crown outline aligns with the root and the mesial cusp ridge is almost _______
|
distal
horizontal |
|
|
True or False
The maxillary and mandibular canines have cingulums? |
True
|
|
|
The canines have ____________ facial lobes and ________ lingual lobe per cingulum
|
three
one |
|
|
The maxillary canine is nearly as long as the _______ incisor but with a much longer root
|
central
|
|
|
True or False
Root curvatures of mandibular canines can be used to differentiate rights and lefts |
False
The apical end is often straight rather than curving mesial or distal |

incisal/middle junction
middle third |
|
|
mesial and distal contacts for the mandibular canines are the _________ for the mesial surface and ________ for the distal surface

more prominent cingulum
cusp tip labial to root axis less cervical labial height of contour height of contour more pronounced incisal wear more lingual appearance of thicker cusp tip faciolingually |
|
|
Mandibualar canine traits: Proximal view

less prominent cingulum
cusp tip lingual to root axis line labial height of contour closer to cervical line less pronounced labial height of contour almost continuous with root appearance of less thick cusp tip faciolingually |
|
|
Maxillary canine traits: Incisal view
|
asymmetrical crown outline
slightly greater faciolingually than mesiodistally distal half of crown pinched in faciolingually centered cingulum Incisal edge more horizontal mesiodistally facets on lingual-lingual surface or lingual surface |
|
|
Mandibular canine traits: Incisal view
|
symmetrical crown outline
much greater faciolingually than mesiodistally faciolingual pinch not as evident cingulum to distal incisal edge with distolingual twist facets on labial-incisal of cusp ridge |
