ANSWER: A b




A space, or lack of contact area, between anytwo teeth in the same arch is called adiastema.
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




When a diastema occurs between the maxillary central incisors, it is often the result of a
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




pronounced labial frenum extending to the crest of the alveolar ridge and possibly over the
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




ridge. This band of firm connective tissue causes the erupting incisors to be pushed aside

resultingin adiastema, orspace. Correction of adiastemausuallyinvolves surgical

removal, or cutting, of the frenal tissue between teeth.

Torus palatinus is excess bone growth and occurs in the midline of the hard palate. It may
