1.The chronology of the tooth.
2.The morphology of the tooth.
3.Its clinical consideration
At the end of this lecture you must know:
Introduction Human canines are the longest and most stable of teeth in the dental arch. Only one tooth of this class is present in each quadrant. Canines are considered the cornerstones of the dental arch. They are the only teeth in the dentition with a single cusp. Maxillary canines by definition are the teeth in the maxilla distal, but closest to the incisors.
General characteristics of the permanent
canines•All canines are the “Cornerstone” of the mouth•Extra bulk of bone on the labial portion of root called Canine eminence which help to support facial muscles•Longest root of any teeth making the canines the most stable teeth •In function, support the incisors and the premolars (makes for a smooth transition)•Longest tooth cervicoinsically
Chronology
• 1st. Evidence of calcification:
• Crown completed:
• Eruption:
• Root completion:
4 -5 months
6 -7 years.
11 – 13 years.
13 – 15 years.

So we must choose conservative treatment as first choice as we can to preserve the normal facial shape
2. Esthetical
Canines appear during talking and laughing so it must be restored with materials that completely mimic the natural one.
Shape- a cusp-like tubercle is found on the cingulum.
-Lingual pits occur only infrequently .
Size
On occasion, the root is unusually long or unusually short.
