Which tooth has two points on it's top surface?
The tooth that typically has two points on its top surface is a molar, specifically the maxillary molars. These teeth are characterized by their broad, flat surfaces with multiple cusps, which can appear as two prominent points.

However, it's important to note that the number and shape of cusps can vary among individuals.

I was proposed the same question by a student today, and the only answer I can come up with, besides because our common ancestors have it that way is there is a limitation of room in left ventricle. However what we think causes it is the fusion of the valves tissue from 3 cusps into 2 in human development.
