Incisal edge

Incisal edge Nepean

The incisal edge refers to the biting edge of the front teeth, which are typically the central and lateral incisors. This part of the tooth is crucial for various dental functions, including biting into food and cutting it. It plays a significant role in your smile's aesthetics and functionality.

Compared to the occlusal surface, which is the biting surface of the molars and premolars, the incisal edge is specific to the front teeth. It's important to maintain the health and integrity of the incisal edge to ensure proper dental function and a beautiful smile.

If you have concerns about your incisal edges or require dental care related to these areas, please don't hesitate to contact Citigate Dental at 613-440-4423 to schedule an appointment with our dentists.
