Hey guys,

I had a question about contacts in ICP. Does the DL cusp of a #14 only contact the DMR of #19 or does it also contact the MMR of #18? I thought it contacted both marginal ridges, but I found a diagram online that seems to indicate otherwise. If the diagram is correct, then this means the MMR's of lower molars & premolars would never be in contact in ideal occlusion?

Thanks!

You're right, both sides of the marginal ridge; don't overthink it.
 
Me too. I'm a general dentist who's been out a couple years and am studying for the ADAT :dead:
