OCCLUSAL
The primary mandibular second molar resembles a permanent
mandibular first molar. There five cusps three on the buccal
surface and two on the lingual. The enamel is uniformly is 1.2 mm
thick. The occlusal aspect of the primary mandibular second
molar is somewhat rectangular. The three buccal cusps are
similar in size. The two lingual cusps are also equally matched.
However, the total mesiodistal width of the lingual cusps is less
than the total mesiodistal width of the three buccal cusps. Well-
defined triangular ridges extend occlusally from each one of
these cusp tips. The triangular ridges end in the center of the
crown buccolingually in a central developmental groove. The two
buccal grooves are confluent with the buccal developmental
grooves of the buccal surface, one mesial and one distal, and the
single lingual developmental groove is confluent with the lingual
groove on the lingual surface of the crown.
Mesial
The crest of contour buccallly is more prominent on the
primary molar,and the tooth seems to be more constricted
occlusally because of the flattened buccal surface above
the cervical ridge.
The crown is poised over the root of this tooth in the same
manner as all mandibular posterior its buccal cusp is over
the root and the lingual outline of the crown extending out
beyond the root line.
The marginal ridge is high ,a characteristic that makes
mesiobuccal cusp
The lingual cusp is longer or higher ,than buccal cusp
The cervical line is regular ,making up for the difference in
length between the buccal and lingual cusps.
DISTAL
The buccolingual width of the crown is less on the
distal aspect.
The distolingual cusp is well developed as compared
to the distobuccal cusp.
The distal marginal ridge is shorter and presents
slightly at a lower level as compared to the mesial
marginal ridge.
The cervical line of the crown is straight
buccolingually.
The buccolingual width of the root is less on the
distal root, especially in the apical third portion.
Therefore, part of the mesial root is visible from the
distal aspect.
LINGUAL From the lingual aspect, two cusps of
almost equal dimensions can be observed
ASPECT
(see Figures A). A short, lingual groove is
between them. The two lingual cusps are
not quite as wide as the three buccal
cusps; this arrangement narrows the crown
lingually. The cervical line is relatively
straight, and the crown extends out over
the root more distally than it does mesially.
The mesial portion of the crown seems to
be a little higher than the distal portion of
the crown when viewed from the lingual
aspect. It gives the impression of being
tipped distally. A portion of each of the
three buccal cusps may be seen from this
aspect.The roots from this aspect give
somewhat the same appearance as from
the buccal aspect. Note the length of the
roots.
A. Lingual aspect
BUCCAL
ASPECT From the buccal aspect, the primary mandibular
second molar has a narrow mesiodistal calibration
at the cervical portion of the crown compared
with the calibration mesiodistally on the crown at
contact level.
central incisor = 1
lateral incisor = 2
canine = 3
1st molar = 4
2nd molar = 5
The mandibular first priamry molar, accordingly, is wider at the cervical portion. From this aspect
mesiobuccally and distobuccal developmental grooves divide the buccal surface of the crown occlusally
into three cuspal portions almost equal in size
The two lingual cusps are not quite as wide as the three buccal cusps; this arrangement narrows the
crown lingually. The cervical line is relatively straight, and the crown extends out over the root more
distally than it does mesially
The crown is poised over the root of this tooth in the same manner as all mandibular posteriors; its
buccal cusp is over the root and the lingual outline of the crown extending out beyond the root line.
The lingual cusp is longer, or higher, than the buccal cusp. The cervical line is regular, although it extends
upward buccolingually, making up for the difference in length between the buccal and lingual cusps.
Mandibular molars are usually
bifurcated, having two roots, a mesial
root and distal root.
Root
Because these teeth are bifurcated,
there are two furcation located on the
buccal and lingual surfaces midway
between the proximal surfaces
Cingulum
The distal marginal ridge dips down
more sharply and is shorter
buccolingually than the mesial marginal
ridge.
