Naming of Tooth Surfaces MESIAL DISTAL FACIAL LINGUAL OCCLUSAL INCISAL
Naming of Tooth Surfaces Every tooth has the following Surfaces: MESIAL DISTAL FACIAL LINGUAL
Naming of Tooth Surfaces In addition, Posterior teeth Have an Occlusal Surface MESIAL DISTAL FACIAL LINGUAL OCCLUSAL
Naming of Tooth Surfaces and Anterior teeth Have an Incisal Surface MESIAL DISTAL FACIAL LINGUAL INCISAL
That surface of the tooth that is closest to the mid-line X Mesial
Naming of Tooth Surfaces That surface of the tooth that is further from the mid-line Distal X X
In most cases, Mesial surfaces of one tooth contact the Distal surface of another tooth.There are two exceptions in each quadrant. MESIAL DISTAL X X
Exception #1: Mesial of a Central Incisor contacts the Mesial of the other Central Incisor Exception #2: The 3rd Molars have no Contact on their Distal Surfaces
In all other cases, the Mesial surface of one tooth contacts The Distal surface of Another tooth
In all other cases, the Mesial surface of one tooth contacts The Distal surface of Another tooth

FACIAL SURFACES THE SURFACE OF A TOOTH CLOSEST TO THE CHEEKS (FACE)
FACIAL TOOTH SURFACES Facial surfaces on Posterior Teeth are ALSO called Buccal Surfaces.
FACIAL TOOTH SURFACES Facial surfaces on Anterior Teeth are ALSO called Labial Surfaces.
In summary: • The surface of the tooth closest to the cheek (face) is called Facial surface. • Facial surface of the POSTERIOR teeth are also called Buccal surfaces. • Facial surface of the ANTERIOR teeth are also called Labial surfaces
