| So, for example, the tetrapod splenial developed a medially-directed twist of the ventral margin, exposing the splenial ventrally and mesially. |
|
| The labial surfaces of the plates are smooth, slightly convex both mesially and distally with a shallow concavity between. |
|
| If the shoulder has to be ground mesially or distally, this must be done during implantation but before closure of the soft tissue by suture. |
|
| These appliances allowed the maxillary molars to migrate mesially and hold the lower molars in place. |
|
| Bone loss was measured mesially and distally, and a mean bone loss value was calculated. |
|
| In F creaseri, the central projection reaches basically to the same level, but the distal half of the ramus is bent more mesially. |
|
| The high-density bone is formed as the leading roots are moved mesially. |
|
| The upper postcanines have a tall principal cusp that is flanked by a smaller, slightly lingually displaced cusp mesially and distally. |
|
| The buccal wall is near its base surrounded by a vestigial ectocingulid, which ends mesially in a tiny tuberculid. |
