Introduction
There are many positive and negatives features on a
tooth eg, cusp tips and ridges.
The ridges, when properly formed, are convex in all
directions. Buccolingually and mesiodistally. This is to
provide point contacts with the opposing cusps.
The convex surfaces of ridges produce a distributed
contact pattern with small contacts. In this way
occlusal forces are distributed over a wide area of the
occlusal surface.
