Text is for dentist/dental technician. I know it means the "number 3 teeth" (presumably from the middle, i.e. the canines) but I was wondering if anyone knew whether dentists use a standard equivalent term?
Or should I just put "canines"? Grateful for any help. Thanks.

Canines or cuspids
You could use either canines or cuspids (they are both used when you talk about the 4 teeth as a group- individually they all have different numbers assigned to them)
