Which features the longest root and overall tooth?

  1. Maxillary canine

  2. Mandibular canine

  3. Maxillary central

  4. Mandibular lateral

The correct answer is: Maxillary canine

The other options are incorrect because the canine teeth (option A and B) are not the longest overall as they usually have single roots and are shorter than the central and lateral incisors. The central incisors (option C) have the longest root, but not the longest overall tooth as they are generally shorter than the canines and lateral incisors. The lateral incisors (option D) have shorter roots and overall tooth length compared to the canines and central incisors. This makes option A, the maxillary canine, the only correct answer for this question as it has both the longest root and the longest overall tooth.
