Detailed explanation-1: -FDI World Dental Federation (ISO) notation The FDI notation uses a two-digit numbering system in which the first digit represents a tooth’s quadrant and the second digit represents the number of the tooth from the midline of the face.
Detailed explanation-2: -Molars: upper right (16, 17), upper left (26, 27), lower left (36, 37) and lower right (46, 47). Wisdom teeth (third molars) : upper right (18), upper left (28), lower left (38) and lower right (48) (there are 12 molars).
