the first premolar.


Class II Occlusion - ANS-(Retrognathic) buccal groove of the mandibular first
permanent molar is
distal go the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent
molarby at leastthewidthof a
premolar.Distal portionof themaxillarycanineis mesialto the mesial portion of the mandibular
