Thanks, Dr. Ryan for all the amazing videos. You're doing great work. Congratulations on your accomplishment 👏, I just wanted to mention that I watched every single video on your channel. And every dentist from my friend circle is your subscriber now.
Hi, Dr. Ryan! Your vids are so helpful for a post-grad student reviewing for boards like me. Regarding this series, when will the mandibular molars be uploaded?
Hi, Dr. Ryan! Thank you so much for the effort your videos are very helpful. Regarding the cusp sizes, you mentioned that the distobuccal cusp is the smallest however, in the dental decks it says the distolingual cusp is the smallest of all 4 cusps as it can even be nonexistent.
You’re welcome, Aya! You discovered one of the frustrating things about dental anatomy that I don’t want you to worry about too much. The cusp sizes are not always consistent! Sometimes the distofacial cusp will be smallest, and other times the distolingual cusp will be smallest or even nonexistent like you mentioned.
The maxillary first molar definitely has 4 canals more often than 3. For the maxillary second molar it is a lot closer, and different sources say different things. I still subscribe to the numbers I’ve reported in this video, but you are right to say that it is a debated topic!

Thanks for more this amazing video
You’re very welcome! 😁
How many videos are you planning to create for dental anatomy?
Just a few more until the series is completed!
Hi Dr Ryan, I am a bit confused. Some resources say that 3 canals are more common than 4 canals for the max 2nd molar....
