Occlusion

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Static occlusion   when the jaws are closed in centric occlusion  
🗑
Centric occlusion   position of the jaws that affords the greatest interdigitation of the teeth; the habitual way that the teeth come together;  
🗑
Normal occlusion   all teeth in the maxillary arch are in maximum contact with all the teeth in the mandibular arch; maxillary teeth slightly overlap mandibular teeth  
🗑
Malocclusion   Any deviation from physiologically acceptable relationship of the maxillary arch and/or teeth to the mandibular arch/ teeth;  
🗑
Three facial profiles:   Mesognathic; Retrogranthic, and Prognathic  
🗑
Characterize mesognathic facial profile   Mesognathic - slightly protruding jaws which give the face a flat outline  
🗑
Characterize Retrognathic facial profile   Prominent maxilla, and mandible posterior to its normal position  
🗑
Prognathic   Prominent, Protruded mandible  
🗑
Angle's Classification of Permanent Teeth... Permanent teeth are classified based on...   Based on relationship of Maxilla to mandible; specifically the maxillary molars to mandibular molars  
🗑
What teeth are used to classify occlusion of the permanent dentition   Maxillary 1 molars and mandibular 1st molars  
🗑
If the 1st molars are missing what teeth are then used in classification of the permanent dentition?   Maxillary cuspid  
🗑
What are the 3 classes of Angle's Classification   Class I - Neutroclusion, ClassII - Distoclusion; Class III - Mesioclusion  
🗑
Class I neutroclusion corresponds to what facial profile?   Normal/ Mesognathic  
🗑
What is the relationship of teeth in Class I Neutroclusion   MB cusp of the maxillary 1st molar should be aligned with the MB groove of the mandibular 1st molar  
🗑
If 1st molar(s) are missing what is the relationship of teeth in Class I Neutroclussion?   If 1st molar(s) are missing determine by cuspids. Maxillary cuspid should align between the mandibular cuspid and 1st premolar;  
🗑
Class II Distoclusion can be associated with what facial profile?   Retrognathic  
🗑
What is the relationship of teeth in Class II Distoclusion   The MB cusp of the maxillary 1st molar is anterior to the MB groove of the mandibular 1st molar by a cusp width.  
🗑
If 1st molar(s) are missing what is the relationship of teeth in Class II Distoclusion   If 1st molar(s) are missing; the maxillary cuspid is anterior to the interproximal space between the mandibular cuspid and premolar  
🗑
2 Divisions in Class II Distoclusion   Division I: Maxillary anterior teeth are protruded; Div.II: 1 or more of the maxillary anterior teeth are retruded;  
🗑
Class III Mesioclusion characterized with what facial profile   Prognathic  
🗑
What is the relationship of teeth in Class III Mesioclusion   The MB cusp of the maxillary 1st molar is distal to the MB groove of the mandibular 1st molar by a cusp width;  
🗑
If 1st molar(s) are missing what is the relationship of teeth in Class III Mesioclusion   Maxillary cuspid is distal to the interproximal space between the mandibular cuspid and 1st premolar;  
🗑
Statement: Record occlusion on both sides of the mouth   True  
🗑
Statement: Record occlusion measuring it on one side of the mouth only   False. record occlusion on both sides of the mouth  
🗑
Statement: Pt may have different occlusions on opposite sides of the mouth   True.  
🗑
Pt can't have different occlusion on opposite sides of the mouth   False. Pt can have different occlusions on opposite sides of the mouth;  
🗑
Types of Crossbites   Anterior and Posterior  
🗑
Anterior Crossbite   Maxillary Incisors are lingual to mandibular incisors  
🗑
Posterior Crossbite   Maxillary or mandibular posterior teeth that are lingual or facial to their normal position  
🗑
Malrelations of teeth: edge to edge   Incisal surfaces of maxillary anterior teeth occlude with the incisal surfaces of the mandibular anterior teeth, instead of overlapping  
🗑
Malrelations of teeth: end to end   Molars and premolars occlude cusp to cusp;  
🗑
Open Bite   Lack of occlusal or incisal contact between maxillary and mandibular teeth  
🗑
Overjet   Mandibular anterior teeth are lingual to the maxillary anterior teeth; Horizontal measurement between maxillary and mandibular teeth;  
🗑
Underjet   Maxillary anterior teeth are lingual to the mandibular anterior teeth; Horizontal measurement between maxillary and mandibular teeth  
🗑
Overbite can be:   Normal, Moderate, Severe  
🗑
Normal overbite   incisal edge of maxillary incisors within the incisal third of the mandibular incisors  
🗑
Moderate overbite   incisal edge of maxillary incisors within the middle third of the mandibular incisors  
🗑
Severe overbite   incisal edge of maxillary incisors within the cervical third of the mandibular incisors;  
🗑
Labioversion   Tooth positioned labial to normal  
🗑
Linguoversion   Tooth positioned lingual to normal  
🗑
Buccoversion   tooth positioned buccal to normal  
🗑
Supraversion   Also termed supraeruption or hypererupsion; erupted above the line of occlusion; associated with missing teeth;  
🗑
Torsoversion   turned or rotated tooth  
🗑
Infraversion   tooth positioned below the line of occlusion  
🗑
Primary occlusion. Normal (ideal)   Normal(ideal) w/primate spaces-a diastema or gap in tooth row occasionally observed in a primary dentition. Max primate spaces accomod. the mand canines when teeth are in the occlusion. Mand primate spaces accomod. max canines when teeth are in occlusion.  
🗑
What are primate spaces.   Diastema or gap in tooth row occasionally observed in primary dentition. Max primate spaces accom mand canines when teeth are in occlusion; mand primate spaces accomodate max canines when teeth are in occlusion  
🗑
Relationship of teeth in normal (ideal) primary occlusion   MB cusp of the primary 2nd molar occludes with the B groove of the primary mand 2nd molar; Canine relationship: Cusp tip of primary maxillary cuspid occludes with the interproximal space of the primary mandibular 1st molar and primary mand cuspid.  
🗑
Statement: Angle's Classification applies only to permanent dentition   TRUE  
🗑
Flush terminal plane characteristic of ...   Primary occlusion: distal surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular primary 2nd molars are located in the same vertical plane; End-to-end occlusion  
🗑
What are the three variations of the abnormal primary occlusions?   1)Flush terminal plane; 2)Distal step 3)Mesial or terminal step  
🗑
Distal step primary dentition   Distal surface of the mandibular primary molar is distal to the distal surface of the maxillary primary molar;  
🗑
Mesial or Terminal Step primary dentition   The distal surface of the mandibular primary molar is mesial to the distal surface of the maxillary primary molar.  
🗑
Supraversion is also termed ...   Hypereruption  
🗑
Supraversion or Hypereruption is associated with   missing teeth  
🗑
