True
Which premolar does not develop from 4 lobes?

What are found on the occulsal surfaces of premolars?
cusps, grooves, ridges, fossae
The occulsal surface of the premolar is bordered by?
marginal ridges
How many premolars are in the primary teeth?
There are no premolars in primary dentition because they replace deciduous molars.
There is an exception to the mandibular 1st eruption rule, which tooth is it?
