Baby Dental – What Are Premolars

Tuesday, Jul. 6th 2021 6:50 AM

Premolares are the teeth located distal to the canines.  There are four premolars in each arch and two are located behind each canine in the arch.  These teeth are smaller than the molars and are responsible for crushing food in the chewing process.  These teeth are also only present in the permanent dentition.  The primary dentition only consists of incisors, canines and molars.
