Ten Years (Figs. 98, 99, 100).—From the increased obliquity of tlie teeth the jaws become prominent in front, and at the ordinary height of the head tlie inferior incisors are hidden when looked at from in front. The ogive formed by the two sets of incisors, Avhen looked at in profile, is more closed ; the angle of the teeth increases, and a greater interspace is found between the intermediate and corner teeth. On the tables the inferior pinchers are seen to be more rounded than at nine years, and the cup is smaller and decidedly triangular; it is closer to the posterior border of the teeth. The dental star, still more apparent, is found about the centre of the teeth. The intermediate teeth are rounded and the corner teeth commence to assume this form. The example furnished by the plate shows deep fissures on the posterior border of the corner teeth. The incisive arch is flatter in the centre. In the plate showing the teeth from in front the superior pinchers are seen to be somewhat worn from Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Huidekoper, Rush Shippen, 1854-1901.
