accessory cusp

There are also smaller accessory cusps in front of the buccal cusp.

Beside each principal cusp there is one small accessory cusp.

However, when I cleaned off the teeth, there was an accessory cusp of the Carabelli.

The accessory cusp known as the protoconule is present on each of the upper molars when they are unworn.

Lower cheek teeth rounded without accessory cusps.

The tooth bears a strong parastyle (accessory cusp at the front labial corner) and has three roots.

The old fracture of the jaw, the unusual accessory cusp of the Carabelli, not to mention fingerprints.

This hypercarnivorous and highly cursorial genus is distinguished by accessory cusps on the premolars.

I sketched the metal sutures and accessory cusp and wished the heaviness inside me would lift.

It shows well-developed small accessory cusps (the paraconule and metaconule) that are connected to equally well-developed crests.

Researchers describe it as being distinguished by its "tall, slender teeth with large central cusps separated from small accessory cusps by lingual grooves."

The radula has a slightly asymmetric rachidian tooth with two main cusps and a minor cusp between them and two to four accessory cusps laterally.

Accessory cusps are additional cusps on a tooth and may manifest as a Talon cusp, Cusp of Carabelli, or Dens evaginatus.

The lateral teeth are tricuspid, the three main cusps being of similar size and having one small accessory cusp between them and one to three to the side of the ectocone.

Obama's namesake was identified on the basis of jaw fossils from Montana's Hell Creek Formation, with "tall, slender teeth with large central cusps separated from small accessory cusps by lingual grooves."

The teeth themselves are of the cladodont variety; the bases of the teeth are broadest on the lingual side, and each support a single large cusp and two pairs of smaller accessory cusps for a total of five cusps.

The rachidian tooth has a high base, wider at the most basal portion, and robust but relatively short main cusps, with one to two accessory cusps to their side and, occasionally, an accessory cusp between them.

"It is a small polyglyphanodontian [one of the most diverse lizard branches] distinguished by tall, slender teeth with large central cusps separated from small accessory cusps by lingual grooves," the researchers write of Obamadon, which is known primarily from the jaw bones of two specimens.
