Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Linguoincisal attrition is characteristic of maxillary incisors because this surface contacts the mandibular teeth during normal function. The maxillary central incisors are the most prominent teeth in the mouth. Roots of mandibular incisors are thinner than those of the maxillary incisors. The contours of the mandibular teeth are such that the labiolingual crown dimension is wider than is the mesiodistal.
