The Curve of Wilson is characterized by the buccal cusps of the lower posterior teeth being higher than the lingual cusps and vice versa for the upper arch poster teeth. This delineates a curved medio-lateral shape which is designed to enhance the chewing cycle. As the tongue bring the food bolus into the oral cavity proper, the increased height of the lower buccal cusps and the complementary form of the upper posterior teeth cusps allow the food to remain in the chewing area and not spill out laterally.

What is the difference between the curve of Wilson and the Monson curve?

curve of Wilson goes from lateral end of tooth from one side to the other end of the other tooth on the other end of the same arch. it is like from the lateral end of right 1st moral on max arch to the lateral end of the left 1st molar on the same arch. The SPHERE of monson (imaginary) is basically a combination of Wilson curve with curve of spee (curve of spee: goes from anterior teeth to posterior passing through the occlusal sulcus).
