Mandibular 2nd Molar
mandibular second premolar
what do molar teeth do
When the mesial buccal cusp of the maxillary first molar is distal to the mesial buccal cusp of the mandibular first molar.
The maxillary bone is the upper jaw whereas the mandible is the lower jaw. So the maxillary molar must refer to the molar on the upper jaw and the mandibular molar is the molar on the lower jaw.

deciduous molar with their occlusal surface below that of adjacent teeth most common is mandibular second deciduous molar may become ankylosed
in order to diagnose malocclusion..ask da patient to occlude n observe the relationship of the maxillary n mandibular molars...if the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary molar occludes in the buccal groove of mandibular molar...then its a class 1 maloclusion...this is some times considered as nrmal occlusion...

Yes, but it will be more difficult to chew!
Submerged dentition. If a tooth is stuck and wants to come out but cannot, we call it an impacted tooth. Usually it is a third molar tooth that causes this condition. also known as impacted wisdom tooth.
Winter's Lines (WAR)The position & depth of the mandibular 3rd molar can bedetermined using the Winter's Lines(WAR). These are 3imaginary lines (red, amber & white) "drawn" on the dentalX-ray (these days, normally an OPG / DPT).White LineThe white line is drawn along the occlusal surfaces of theerupted mandibular molars & extended over the 3rd molarposteriorly. It indicates the difference in occlusal level ofthe 1st & 2nd molars & the 3rd molar.Amber LineThe amber line represents the (height of the) bone level.The amber line is drawn from the surface of the bone onthe distalaspect of the 3rd molar (or from the ascendingramus) to the crest of the inter-dental septumtwixt the 1st& 2nd molars. This line denotes the margin of the alveolarbonecovering the 3rd molar and gives some indication tothe amount of bone that will need to be removed for thetooth to come out.Red LineThe red lineis an imaginary line drawn perpendicular fromthe amber line to an imaginary point of application of anelevator. Usually, this is the cemento-enamel junctiononthe mesialaspect of the impacted tooth (unless, it is thedisto-angular impacted tooth where the application pointis the distal cemento-enamel junction). The red lineindicates the amount of bone that will have to be removedbefore elevation of the tooth i.e. the depth of the tooth inthe jaw & the difficulty encountered in removing the tooth.With each increase in length of the red line by 1mm, theimpacted tooth becomes 3 x more difficult to remove (asopined by Howe). If the red line is < 5mm, than the toothcan be removed under just LA; anything above, a GA orLA Sedationwould be more appropriate.
