What shape is the distal wedge incision on the maxilla?

Circular
Parallel
V-shaped
U-shaped

The correct answer is: Parallel

The correct answer is "Parallel." When performing a distal wedge incision on the maxilla, it is typically made in a parallel shape. This type of incision allows for better access and visibility during the surgical procedure. A circular shape would not be the most appropriate for a distal wedge incision as it may not provide the ideal access required for the procedure. V-shaped and U-shaped incisions also do not offer the same benefits as a parallel shape when performing a distal wedge incision on the maxilla.
