What type of teeth do I have?

[Chris596]

I read a couple of articles and scientific papers today about the human teeth. I already knew that many things can be determined based on the shape of the teeth and different dental features, such as geographical origins.

What can you tell me based on my dental features? (this is a serious anthropological question)

My teeth:
97668

Maybe is a good question for an odontology forum.

Another question: do I have ,,normal'' or shovel shaped incisors? (the 2 upper teeth in the center)

Caucasian teeth, at least from that view. They look nothing like my Chinese friend's, who's teeth I have been looking at since we were in the 9th grade. :)

Also, it really is hard to tell without a dental exam, but yours look much smaller and less thick than his. I have seen pictures of shovel shaped incisors, and I could tell just by feeling my teeth with my fingers that I don't have them. So give that a try.

Can only tell from the back of the teeth, if there is a dip then they are shovel shaped if they are smooth they are regular.
