Which cusp of which
tooth is represented by
the black dot (red
arrow)?

contacts
areas of contact
in a
Class
of mandibular
I occlusion
teeth with teeth
in the maxillary
arch
Guidelines for Learning Ideal Contacts
Mandibular
third molar
Mandibular
second molar
Mandibular
first molar
Maxillary third
molar
Maxillary second
molar
Maxillary first
molar
The DB (distobuccal)
cusps of the
mandibular molars
contact the central pit
or fossa of their
maxillary counterparts
Guidelines for Learning Ideal Contacts
Mandibular
third molar
Mandibular
second molar
Mandibular
first molar
Maxillary third
molar
Maxillary second
molar
Maxillary first
molar
The MB (mesiobuccal)
cusps of the
mandibular molars
contact the MMR of
their maxillary
counterparts and the
DMR of the tooth
mesial to that
Guidelines for Learning Ideal Contacts
Maxillary
second
premolar
Mandibular
second premolar
Mandibular
first premolar
Maxillary
first
premolar
The B (buccal) cusps
of the mandibular
premolars contact the
MMR of their maxillary
counterparts and the
DMR of the tooth
mesial to that
Guidelines for Learning Ideal Contacts
Maxillary
canine
Mandibular
canine
The cusp tip of the
mandibular canines
contacts the MMR of
their maxillary
counterparts and the
DMR of the tooth
mesial to that
(maxillary lateral
incisor)
Guidelines for Learning Ideal Contacts
Maxillary lateral
incisor
Maxillary
central incisor
Mandibular
lateral
incisor
Mandibular central
incisor
The incisal ridges of
the mandibular
lateral incisors
contact the MMR of
their maxillary
counterparts and the
DMR of the tooth
mesial to that
(maxillary central
incisor)
The incisal ridges of
the mandibular
central incisors
contact the MMR of
their maxillary
counterparts

Identify tooth shown
Dot represents cusp of opposing
tooth
Mandibular teeth are 1/2 cusp mesial
to the maxillary counterparts
Contacts same for all mandibular
molars
•
DB cusp (Md) ->Central Fossa (Mx)
•
MB cusp (Md)-> MMR & DMR (Mx)
B cusps and canines (Md) contact
MMR & DMR of teeth 1/2 cusp mesial
to maxillary counterparts
Each tooth contacts two teeth
•
Except maxillary third molars
•
Except mandibular central incisors
Which cusp of which
tooth is represented by
the black dot (red
arrow)?
DB cusp of the
mandibular left
first molar
B cusp of the
mandibular
right first
premolar

The angle
between the

becomes
greater the
further the
tooth is from
the condyles
