A lingual pit on the lingual surface of a maxillary molar is at an increased risk for cavities, due to both increased biofilm retention and thinness of enamel forming the walls of the pit. Enamel sealants are recommended to be used on the lingual surfaces of erupting teeth, although sealants have been shown to not bond as easily on lingual surfaces as they do on the occlusal surfaces.
The maxillary bone is the upper jaw whereas the mandible is the lower jaw. So the maxillary molar must refer to the molar on the upper jaw and the mandibular molar is the molar on the lower jaw.
In the human dentition, each quadrant of the maxillary and mandibular arches contains three molars. Therefore, there are a total of 12 molars in the entire mouth, with 6 in the maxillary arch (3 per quadrant) and 6 in the mandibular arch (3 per quadrant).
The maxillary molars and premolars, along with their associated gingiva, are primarily supplied by the posterior superior alveolar artery, a branch of the maxillary artery. The middle superior alveolar artery, also a branch of the maxillary artery, may contribute to the blood supply of the maxillary premolars. These arteries ensure adequate vascularization for the teeth and surrounding tissues in the maxillary region.
children have deciduous molars. they have 8 deciduous molars totally.(two molars per quadrant) maxillary right side-2 maxillary left side-2 mandibular right side-2 mandibular left side-2
answer is C. 13-19
Third molar teeth (Wisdom Teeth) consist of the madibular and maxillary third molars
AnswerUpper molarsStrictly speaking, the only permanent tooth with a regularly occurring transverse ridge is the mandibular first premolar. However, on very rare occasions the maxillary first premolar and maxillary first molar may have a transverse ridge as well. There is still disagreement determining the frequency that the buccal and lingual triangular ridges meet without being interrupted by the central groove.

If you are an adult and still have your wisdom teeth, the you have 12 molars. If your wisdom teeth have been removed, you have 8 molars, unless on or more of them have been removed in the corse of your life.
The first molar is usually innervated by two alveolar nerves: the superior alveolar nerves from the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve.
maxillary permanent molars have a distally inclined path of eruption initially as they erupt they become more horizontally positioned in such situation mesial migration of the erupting tooth is very rare
succedaneous teeth are any permanent teeth replacing a deciduous teeth.they are the permanent incisors, cuspids and premolars replacing the deciduous incisors, cuspids and molars respectively.
