The Permanent Maxillary Incisors

Question 1. Describe in detail the permanent maxillary central incisors.
Answer:

Labial aspect:

  1. The mesial outline – is slightly convex.
  2. The distal outline – is more convex.
  3. The incisal outline – regular and straight tends to curve downward.
  4. The cervical outline – is semicircular.
  5. Root-cone-shaped with a blunt apex.

Lingual aspect:

  1. It shows.
  2. Cingulum – smooth convexity below the cervical line.
  3. Marginal ridges – Mesially and distally confluent with the cingulum.
  4. Lingual fossa- Shallow concavity between the marginal ridges and below the cingulum.
      • It is bordered
      • Mesially by a mesial marginal ridge.
      • Incisally by a lingual portion of the incisal ridge.
      • Distally by a distal marginal ridge
      • Cervically – by cingulum.
  5. Development grooves – extend from the cingulum into the lingual fossa.
  • Crown and root taper lingually.
  • The root is generally triangular in cross-section with rounded angles.
  • One side is placed labially while the other is placed lingually.
  • The mesial side of the triangle is slightly longer than the distal side.

Mesial aspect:

  • The crown is wedge-shaped or triangular with the base at the cervix and an apex at the incisal edge.
  • The labial outline is slightly convex.
  • The lingual outline is convex at the cingulum, concave at the mesial marginal ridge, slightly convex at the lingual incisal ridge and incisal edge
  • Cervical outline curves initially.
  • The root is cone-shaped with a blunt apex,

Features of maxillary central and lateral incisors

Distal aspect:

  • The Crown appears thicker.
  • The curvature of the cervical line is less in extent.

Incisal aspect:

  • The labial face is broad and flat.
  • The cervical portion is convex labially.
  • Incisal ridge slope lingually.
  • The lingual outline tapers towards the cingulum.
  • Prominent mesialabial and distolabial line angle.
  • The crown shows more bulk initially.
  • Broad surfaces are at contact areas.
  • The incisal outline is uniform bilaterally.
  • The cross-section of the root is triangular in shape.
