Cheek teeth fracture horse 1 -Fractured piece of 108 on caudal buccal surface was extracted. The remaining tooth and the neighboring 107 were unstable due to age (27 yr, end stage teeth) and were also removed with little effort.
The thumb is on the occlusal surface of this 408 medial sagittal and transverse cheek tooth fragment. The red tag of gum was its only attachment on the lingual surface.

408 medial sagittal and transverse tooth fragment in a 28 year old. The lingual side faces the hand. The dental pic was placed between 407 and the tooth fragment. Pressing caudally, the fragment was displaced medially and was then grabbed with the fingers. It was only attached by the tag of gum tissue seen on the caudal and distal part of the fragment.
