MESIAL ASPECT
III. Crest of curtvture:
Bucc. at junc. bet mid. and cervical
ling.mid of the mid.
IV. Surface anatomy :
īŧ Aspect is smooth and convex with NO
depressions.
īŧ M. marginal ridge is more occ. than D. one.
īŧ Contact area is broad.
V. Cervical line:
concave root wise.
VI. Root:
īŧ single; broad baccolingual with relatively
blunt apex.
īŧ Shallow developmental depression.
15. Max. 2nd premolar..
DISTAL ASPECT
ī Similar to the M. aspect.
ī D. contact area is wider and
more cervical.
īD. marginal ridge is more
cervical.
īStraighter cervical lines.
ī Deeper developmental
depression.
16. Max. 2nd premolar..
OCCLUSAL ASPECT
ī Geometric outline:
oval or rounded.
ī Elevations:
a. Cusps.. Both at the same size
with wide distance inbetween.
b. Marginal ridges.. thick, strong
and well developed
17. Max. 2nd premolar..
OCCLUSAL ASPECT
īDepressions:
a. Central groove.. Short with
multiple supplemtal grooves.
b. Triangular fossae: near to
each other; D. is larger and
deeper than M.
