Molars
It is called teeth but the front sharp teeth are called canine teeth and other animals have canine teeth too.
The dentist identified a cavity between my bicuspid and molar teeth.
bicuspid"Bicuspid" means having two cusps. Humans have eight bicuspid teeth, two in each jaw. They are the premolars.
The premolars are called bicuspids, which are the 1st and 2nd teeth toward the back of the mouth from the canines. The bicuspid valve (or mitral valve) is the valve between the left atrium and the left ventricle.
bicuspid
Bicuspid teeth are first and second premolars. They are located between canine and first molars. They have at least two cusps. Bicuspid from Latin mean: bi- two;cuspis - sharp point.
The preferred term for "bicuspid" is "premolar." This term is commonly used in dentistry to describe the two types of teeth located between the canine and molar teeth, which are designed for crushing and grinding food. While "bicuspid" specifically refers to the two cusps of these teeth, "premolar" is more widely accepted in modern dental terminology.
The bicuspid teeth are the ones that are generally just behind the really sharp, vampire-looking teeth called the "canines". The bicuspids are the best teeth in the body for breaking hard objects like nuts. While the sharp incisors are used to cut food, and the canines are for tearing meats, and the molars are build for grinding and most chewing, the bicuspids are sort of in the middle of the road.

Molars are the teeth in the back of the jaw that are used for crushing food. The process of chewing is called masticating. The teeth in front do the cutting, these are called incisors. Then we have the canine and then the bicuspids. Molars are either bicuspid or tricuspid depending on how many peaks they have on top.
The area behind your front teeth is called the palate. It is located on the roof of the mouth. The part closest to your teeth is hard palate and the area near the back of your mouth is the soft palate.
It is called the alveolar ridge. =)
