First, thank you for all your effort in all videos, they’re very informative 👌🏻second, In the first video of this series you mentioned that the mandibular canine is the tallest tooth unlike what you mentioned here. So which is the correct one?
Thanks for your question! Be very careful with the details here. I said the maxillary canine is the tallest or longest OVERALL tooth and it has the longest ROOT of all the teeth. However, the mandibular canine has the tallest or longest CROWN of all the teeth, but its shorter root makes it a less tall tooth overall.

What’s CEJ
CEJ = cementoenamel junction 😊
Isn’t the lower canine the longest tooth?.
No. The mandibular canine is the longest tooth in the mandible, but the maxillary canine is the overall longest tooth.
