Tooth anatomy

Kinds of teeth:

¢Incisors -Incisors have a  single root. Upper incisors are larger than lower incisors.  
¢Canines -Canine teeth are also called cuspid. They have one large pointed cusp and a very long single root. 
¢Bicuspids -These teeth (especially the upper ones) usually have two obvious cusps. Lower bicuspids just have one root. Upper ones can have one or two. Bicuspid teeth are also called premolars. 

¢Molars -The molars are the largest teeth in the mouth. They have four or five cusps. Upper molars have three roots, lower ones just two.
