How to read FDI codes
FDI identifies teeth with two digits, not a sequential count from 1 to 28.
First digit: 1 = upper right; 2 = upper left; 3 = lower left; 4 = lower right (permanent teeth).
Second digit, from the midline towards the back: 1–2 = incisors; 3 = canine; 4–5 = premolars; 6–8 = molars.
For example, 13 is the upper right canine. This model omits wisdom teeth 18, 28, 38 and 48, leaving 28 teeth.

This model has 14 teeth in each jaw, without the 4 wisdom teeth. A complete permanent set can contain 32 teeth.
- Incisor
- 8
- Canine

- Premolar

Front incisors cut; canines at the corners tear; premolars and molars at the back crush and grind. The lower jaw moves when the mouth opens.
Model: Z-Anatomy / BodyParts3D · CC BY-SAModel notes
- The dentition is adapted from Z-Anatomy/BodyParts3D, with 28 teeth excluding wisdom teeth. It is not an individual dental scan.
- The tissue specimens illustrate lower permanent teeth; they are not CT data or internal tissues measured from the atlas. Colours, surface detail and thin tissue layers are adjusted for visibility.
- The front half is removed in section view. Exploded view moves tissues apart for inspection; the gaps are not anatomical. Vessels and nerves are not drawn separately. Jaw opening uses a simplified hinge.
