Definition
incisors are brachydont, molars (cheek teeth) are hyposodont

Definition
incisors are hypsodont, the rest are brachydont
Term
What do ameloblasts do?
Definition

Definition
where the non-keratinized SSE of the oral mucosa, meet the keratinized SSE of the external skin of the lip

transitional
Term
What type of epithelium lines the oral cavity?
