The strongest and largest maxillary teeth are the
Permanent molar
As compared with the buccopalatal width, the mesiodistal width of the permanent maxillary first molars is
Lesser. Whereas mesiodistal width is greater as compared to the buccolingual width in mandibular molars.
The supplemental cusp of permanent maxillary first molars is found palatal to
Mesiopalatal cusp
The resistance to torsion is greatest in a permanent maxillary first molars is by

Spherical
The average length of root trunk of a permanent maxillary first molar is
4 millimeters. For a permanent mandibular molar it is approximately 3 millimeter below the cervical line.
In a permanent maxillary first molar the mesiodistal width of mesiopalatal cusp is about ________ of mesiodistal width of crown palatally.
Three fifth
