When does the maxillary 1st molar erupt?

How is it different from all the other teeth?
ﰀﰀ Largest crown in mouth; anchor tooth of
maxillary dentition; presents basic pattern
maxillary dentition;

for permanent maxillary molars; others

differ only with respect to the proportion of their components parts

ﰀﰀ Two lingual cusps separated by distolingual groove which may terminate in a lingual pit in the central portion of the lingual surface

ﰀﰀ Mesial and distal profiles similar to buccal aspect; M and D contact areas in middle third
ﰀﰀ Dominant lingual root(has shallow depression along cervical 2/3 of root); lingual root is broader mesiodistally than buccolingually (the opposite applies to the two buccal roots)

6) Describe the CEJ
ﰀﰀ Mesial marginal ridge connects MB and ML cusps; may have tubercles or mesial marginal groove
ﰀﰀ Crown has trapezoidal outline form ﰀﰀ Buccal profile may appear slightly
concave in middle third ﰀﰀ Lingual profile uniformly convex with
maximum convexity in middle third
ﰀﰀ MB root broad buccolingually and projects straight beyond crown surface slightly toward the buccal

ﰀﰀ Lingual root is shaped like banana and resembles curvature of human vertebrae; it first extends lingually beyond crown outline, then curves in toward the buccal; ML furcation visible
ﰀﰀ Contact area in middle third,slightly buccal and occlusal to crown midpoint
ﰀﰀ CEJ shallow and irregularly curved toward the occlusal

2) Describe the differences in the distal and mesial marginal ridges
3) What surface is more visible from this aspect?
4) Describe the roots
ﰀﰀ B and L profiles similarto mesial aspect
ﰀﰀ Distal marginal ridge shorter than mesial marginal ridge buccolingually
ﰀﰀ Buccal surface more visible due to rhomboidal crown form
ﰀﰀ Three roots visible because DB root is smaller than MB root; L root remains the same
ﰀﰀ DL furcation visible
Occlusal aspect max 1st molar
1) What outline form?
2) In what dimension is it wider?
3) Which marginal ridge is wider?
4) Describe the relative sizes of all the cusps
5) Where are the Trigon and Talon?
6) Where is the oblique ridge?
7) How many fossa does it have, and where are they located?
Occlusal Aspect:
ﰀﰀ Rhomboid outline form;MB and DL line angles are acute; ML and DB line angles are obtuse
ﰀﰀ Wider buccolingually than mesiodistally
ﰀﰀ Mesial marginal ridge wider buccolingually and more prominent than distal marginal ridge
ﰀﰀ Cusps:ML>MB>DB>DL>Carabelli(5th cusp is not part of occlusal surface or occlusal table)
ﰀﰀ Two parts:Trigon (mesial part)outlined by the MB, ML, and DB cusps and Talon (heel) defined by the DL cusp
ﰀﰀ Oblique ridge extends from ML cusp to DB cusp
ﰀﰀ 3 fossae:central fossa(contains central pit), mesial triangular fossa, and distal triangular fossa which is continuous with the distal fossa running distal to and parallel to the oblique ridge and connects with the distolingual groove

2) Which root is the largest and what's the shape of this?
3) Which root is the 2nd larest?
4) Smallest root? Describe its dimensions
