Bi (reptile) and Bii (mammal) illustrate Edmund's (1960, 1962) concepts. He suggested that teeth develop in the sequence showTi by the arrows. (Time is represented by a vertical axis.) Ci shows the actual sequence of tooth development in a primitive reptilian dentition (note alternation of teeth). Cii (arrows) shows the actual sequence in mammalian postcanine dentitions (Osborn, 1970).
