Question

What would be the dental formula of a 16 year old boy?

Answer 1

See below....

Explanation:

You asked about the question, right but the answer will not be appropriate for all.

• We know that the dental formula of an adult is `color(red)("I"-2;" C"-1" PM"-2;" M"-3`

• For a child, it is `color(red)("I"-2;" C"-1" PM"-0;" M"-2`

• I will say that a `16`-year-old boy will have a dental formula like the one of an adult.
