Anterior teeth with tall, triangular main cusp with smooth labial and lingual faces. Labial crown face slightly convex; lingual face strongly convex. Main cusp only slightly sigmoidal in profile view. Single pair of short, triangular lateral cusplets present at base of main cusp, with tiny rounded denticulation at the base of the mesial side of the main cusp, just before the first cusplet. Lateral cusplets appear well separated from the main cusp in lingual view. Deep medial depression occurs at base of labial crown face. Root lobes elongate, basally tapering, slightly diverging, sub-rounded. Deep U-shaped interlobe area. Very pronounced lingual protuberance; boxlike in basal view, with shallow but wide nutritive groove. Lateral teeth have a shorter, broad-based but apically narrow main cusp that may be erect or distally inclined. Labial face of main cusp flat to slightly convex; lingual face very convex. Crown labially inclined in profile view. Mesial and distal cutting edges do not extend to the lateral cusplets. One-to-two pairs of divergent lateral cusplets present. Secondary pairs of cusplets are smaller and always positioned lateral to the larger, medial pair. Cusplets tend to have a slight medial bend. One or more minute, triangular, denticulations present between the medial pair of cusplets and cutting edges. Up to two denticulations may be present mesially, with no more than one present distally, if present at all. Root lobes triangular with rounded ends, strongly divergent. Interlobe area shallow, V-shaped. Lingual root protuberance inconspicuous but has deep nutritive groove.</paragraph>
