  • What are the dental surface nomenclature?

    Facial – The surface of a tooth that is directed towards the face.
    Incisal – The cutting edges of the anterior teeth.
    Lingual – The surface of the tooth that is directed towards the tongue.
    Mesial – The surface of a tooth which faces toward an invisible line drawn vertically through the center of the face..

  • Triadan (modified): is the adaptation of the nomenclature used in human odotology for veterinary.
    In this case each tooth is identified by a three-digit number.
    The first represents the quadrant where the tooth is, being 1 to 4 definitive dentition, and 5 to 8 deciduous dentition.
Nomenclature. Teeth are named by their sets and also arch, class, type, and side. Teeth can belong to one of two sets of teeth: primary ("baby") teeth or permanent teeth. Often, "deciduous" may be used in place of "primary", and "adult" may be used for "permanent".
The convention for naming teeth should follow this sequence: denti- tion (primary or permanent), jaw (maxillary or mandibular), side (right or left), tooth name (incisor, canine, premolar, or molar). 1 An example of a tooth name following this convention would be as follows: permanent maxillary right central incisor.
