Drawing Notes:
The drawing is a depiction of a molar with two root stems. The top two rows are my attempt to represent the ridges on top of the tooth. Reach into your mouth and feel these ridges to determine if I did a decent job of drawing them.
Fun fact:
In the 1940s manufacturers began making dental floss out of nylon.

Drawing Notes:
This is my second attempt to draw a molar. Notice how rows 1 and 2 have changed. I also added the third root to make this one a typical “upper” molar.
Fun Fact:
Today dental floss is made of many different materials including Gore-Tex.
