Which among the following is NOT a common finding of the decidous dentition ?

Correct answer: A. Tight contacts, absence of spacing

  • A. Tight contacts, absence of spacing
  • B. Shallow overjet and overbite
  • C. Flush terminal plane
  • D. Ovoid arch form

Explanation

Spacing, including primate spaces, is common in the deciduous dentition because the primary teeth are narrower than the permanent successors. Tight contacts with no spacing are therefore not a typical finding.
