|
transversely
|
|
In mediotrusive movements, the cusp pathway is (transversely/obliquely) directed
|
obliquely
|
|
True or False, in protrusive movement, cusps slide inside the fossa of the opposing arch the entire way
|
False! They run parallel so that cusps are hitting, the protrusive movement does NOT guide cusps along the arch, rather straight forward (this is pretty "duh" but he made a point of this)
|
|
What are the 3 anatomical determinants of mandibular movement
|
R TMJ, L TMJ, occlusion of teeth
|
|
The neuromuscular system is considered a(n) (anatomical/physiological) component of mandibular movement
|
physiological
|
|
The (posterior/anterior) teeth control guidance of the mandible, whereas the (posterior/anterior) teeth determine it's superior closing movement
|
anterior, posterior
|
|
The TMJ determines how the (anterior/posterior) teeth behave, whereas the anterior guidance determines how the (anterior/posterior) teeth behave
|
posterior, anterior
|
|
True or False, there is a gradient of control, from TMJ in the posterior to AG (anterior guidance) in the anterior
|
True
|
|
True or False, teeth are either controlled by TMJ or AG, never both
|
False, TMJ has more influence in the posterior and AG more in the anterior, but in the middle, these influences overlap
|
|
*What are the 7 requirements of optimum occlusion?
|
1. Both the right and left condyles are in a supero-anterior position in fossae.
2. The articular disc is properly interposed. 3. There is even and simultaneous contact of all teeth. 4. Lighter contacts occur on the anterior teeth than on the posterior. 5. Occlusal forces are directed down long axis of teeth. 6. During laterotrusive movement, the mediotrusive side is discluded immediately. 7. During protrusive movement, all the posterior teeth are discluded immediately. |
|
Anterior teeth are inclined to the labial about how many degrees?
|
12-28 degrees
|
|
True or False, if the maxillary anterior teeth are straight up and down, it will be difficult for the mandible to slide forward in protrusive movement
|
True
|
|
Mandibular incisal tables function against maxillary ___ in anterior guidance
|
marginal ridges
|
|
True or False, the canine has extra enamel to stand up to the pressures of jaw movement
|
True
|
|
The mandibular canine slides against what part of the maxillary canine?
|
central area
|
|
True or False, canine pulp mimics canine tooth anatomy
|
FALSE! In the canine, the pulp is much smaller and does not mimic the overall shape; this allows for more of the canine to be made up of dentin for strength
|
|
What is the area of reinforced bone around the maxillary canine called? Why is it there?
|
canine eminence; to give canine more support
|
