Nope, haven't found a diagram but did find out:

Ring-tailed lemurs share unique dental characteristics with other members of the Superfamily Lemuroidea; they have specialized teeth in their lower jaw that form a dental comb. These long, narrow teeth project nearly straight forward from the jaw and this specialized dentition is thought to aid in grooming (Swindler 2002).

Though this may help - see also the links at the side of the page:

Maybe you could contact the author of this article & see if he would provide you with more detailed information from the study that he made? Contact info is on the web page.
