Inclinations

Maxillary anterior inclination

Great inclination of the root lingually, and slight inclination of the root mesially; canine roots incline distally

Mandibular anterior inclination

Incisors and canines show great lingual root inclination; mesiodistally, the incisors are nearly straight, while canines have a slight distal root inclination

Axial position

Inclination of a tooth from a vertical axis, normally described in mesiodistal and faciolingual directions

Maxillary premolar inclination

Root inclinations are slightly lingual and distal

Maxillary molar inclination

Roots show great lingual inclination and moderate mesial inclination

Mandibular molar inclination

Show moderate to great buccal and distal root inclinations

Mandibular premolar inclination

Some distal root inclination, first premolar root inclines lingually, second is offset buccally, both being slight
