disto-palatal
Cusp of Carabelli is a small extra (5th) cusp on the Maxillary (upper) 1st molar. It is found on the mesiopalatal cusp. It is hereditory and is affected by multiple genes. Generally also found more commonly in europeans.
Molars have projections that come off of them called cusps. The projections that are closer to the cheek on a top molar should contact no tooth structure, while the inside cusps should go between the cusps of the bottom tooth to rest in this pocket. The bottom tooth's cusps are just the opposite: the inside cusp touches no tooth structure while the cusps closer to the cheek go in between the cusps of the top tooth. When molars touch cusp to cusp, this causes strain on the mouth, along with the TMJ. This can lead to more severe problems in the future.
When the mesial buccal cusp of the maxillary first molar is distal to the mesial buccal cusp of the mandibular first molar.

The cusp of Carabelli
Yes indeed. It is the third molar (wisdom tooth)
A wisdom tooth is one of the three molars. A molar is defined as a tooth with four cusps or points, and the wisdom tooth is simply the last molar to erupt and farthest back in the jaw.
The third adult molar is also called wisdom tooth.
Five (when Carabelli cusp is present)
A back tooth is another name for a molar tooth.
