In humans, the deciduous dentition consists of 20 total teeth, with the dental formula 2102 (or 2102/2102), indicating two incisors, one canine, zero premolars, and two molars in each quadrant.The dentition consists of the teeth of the cranium and the mandible. Teeth articulate with bone via the alveoli or tooth sockets. For the upper dentition, the tooth sockets occur in the maxillae; in the lower dentition they are in the mandible. Due to their placement and orientation within the skeletal system, the dentition have their own set of directional termsSection 6.2.2 identifies some directional terms specific to dentition. Because work on dental anatomy makes extensive use of these terms, a brief review is essential here. In dental anatomy, the mesial portion of the tooth is closest to the point where the central incisors contact each other, and distal is the opposite of mesial. The lingual part of the tooth crown is toward the tongue. Labial is the opposite of lingual but is usually reserved for the incisors and canines.
