Incisors (front teeth) act as wedges in the human body. Which change would increase the mechanical advantage of incisors?

A wedge’s mechanical advantage increases when its length increases relative to its thickness. Increasing the incisors’ length while keeping their thickness unchanged raises that ratio, so choice D is correct. Increasing thickness instead would reduce the mechanical advantage, and distance from a fulcrum is not the relevant factor for a wedge.
