Facial: This tooth closely resembles the maxillary first premolar but is a less defined copy of its companion

to the mesial. The buccal cusp is shorter, less pointed, and more rounded than the first. Lingual: Again, this tooth resembles the first. The lingual cusp, however, is more nearly as large as the buccal cusp. Proximal: Mesial and distal surfaces are rounded. The mesial developmental depression and mesial marginal ridge are not present on the second premolar. Occlusal: The crown outline is rounded, ovoid, and is less clearly defined than is the first.
