    In linguistics, a dental consonant or dental is a consonant that is articulated with the tongue against the upper teeth, such as /t/, /d/, /n/, and /l/ :confused:

    I agree with you bhafc810 and would go for answer b ;)

    A dental consonant is one you have to place your tongue against your teeth to make. Try saying "d" and you'll quickly find that the answer is b.
