PERMANENT MANDIBULAR CENTRAL INCISOR
1. Dr. Ramil B. Simsuangco
Oral Anatomy Professor
College of Dentistry
Manila Central University
2. Permanent Mandibular Incisors
Develops from 4 primary centers of formation (lobes); 3
labial lobe and 1 lingual lobe
SMALLER IN ALL DIMENSION compared to maxillary incisors
Central incisor is smaller than Lateral incisor, which is
reverse in maxilla
Incisal surfaces shows a labial inclination when occlusion
is normal; while incisal surfaces of maxillary incisors has
lingual inclination.
This arrangement makes the incisal planes of the max.
and mand. Incisors parallel with each other, fitting together
during incising action
3. MANDIBULAR CENTRAL INCISOR
Smallest tooth in the dental arch
It presents the characteristic of
being BILATERALLY SYMMETRICAL
Crown has more than half the MD
dimension of the max. incisors, but
labiolingual diameter is only about
1mm.
Single root is very narrow MD but the
root and crown are wide
labiolingually.
4. LABIAL ASPECT
Crown outline is trapezoidal
Crown outline is regular and tapering evenly to a sharp MI and DI
angle
Incisal ridge is straight and is approximately at a right angle to the
root axis line.
CONTACT AREAS:
Mesial- in the incisal 3rd, very near the incisal angle
Distal- in the incisal 3rd, but cervical to the level of the mesial contact
area
Labial surface is smooth with flattened surface at the incisal 3rd, more convex
middle 3rd and narrows down to the convexity of the root at the cervical
portion
Mesial and Distal root outlines are straight with the M and D outlines of the
crown
Root terminates in a small pointed taper, in most cases curving distally
5.
6. Lingual Aspect
Crown outline is trapezoidal
Smooth with very slight
concavity
Marginal ridges are more
prominent near the incisal
edges
No developmental lines mark
the cingulum
7.
8. MESIAL ASPECT
Crown is triangular
Incisal ridge is rounded or worn flat and its center is usually
lingual to the center of the root (RAL)
Curvature of CEJ is marked, curving approximately 1/3 the length
of the crown
Mesial surface of crown is convex and smooth at the incisal 3rd and
is broad and flat at the middle 3rd
Mesial surface of root is flat just below the CEJ
Root diameter is uniform through the cervical 3rd and part of the
middle 3rd, tapering rapidly to the apical 3rd to either a blunt
rounded or pointed apex.
Most roots have a broad developmental depression for most of its
root length, depressions mostly deeper at the junction of middle
and apical 3rd
9.
10. DISTAL ASPECT
Same as the mesial except CEJ
curves less than 1 mm than
mesial,
developmental depression may
be more marked, with deeper
and more well defined
developmental groove at the
center
11. INCISAL ASPECT
Illustrates bilateral symmetry, mesial half is almost
identical with the distal half
Incisal edge is almost at right angles to the line bisecting
the crown labiolingually (serves as identification)
Labiolingual diameter is always greater than mesiodistal
width
Labial surface of crown is wider MD than the lingual
surface
Labial surface of crown at the incisal 3rd has tendency
towards concavity
More of the labial surface may be seen than the lingual
surface
