what is the anatomical alignment of teeth and their relationship to the masticatory system
Occlusion
what is refer to the habitual occlusion that is dictated by the way the teeth naturally come together
Centric Occlusion
This is unnatural stress place on occlusion. Both teeth and periodontium may be affecte
Occlusal trauma
Serves as a standard for describing occlusion
Centric occlusion
this is defined as a voluntary position of the dentition that allows maximum contact when the teeth occlude.
Centric Occlusion
What are the factors affecting Occlusion
Hereditary factors
Decayed or missing teeth
Habits--clenching or grinding
Muscle pressure and function
What are some horizontal forces affect teeth position
1. Tongue pushes teeth outward
2. lip and cheeks push the teeth inward
When horizontal forces are off balanced what occurs?
Malocclusion
What is Overjet?
the horizontal overlap between the two arches
The amount of overlap of the incisal edge of the maxillary incisors over the mandibular incisors is called?
Overbite
This is a condition when mandibular teeth lie outside of their maxillary antagonist
Crossbite
What causes an Open bite?
tongue trusting or habits such as thumb sucking
What is this term:
view by buccal view, where the maxillary arch is convex and mandibular arch is concave
Curve of spee
What is this term:
Viewed from right to left through Frontal section of Arch
Curve of Wilson
This is the occlusion where the condyle is in the most posterior, superior,unstrained position in the glenoid fossa. It is the most stable and posterior relationship of the jaws
centric Relation
Centric relation is determined by the ___ and ___
muscle and bone
Maxillary buccal cusp generally____ mandibular buccal cusp
Overlap
this is the point of closure of the mandible; the mandible is in the most retruded position to which it can be carried by the musculature and ligaments
centric relation
This happens when teeth are in maximum intercuspation and there is voluntary occlusion
Centric Occlusion
Condyle of TMJ are in the most upward, backward, and unstrained position in dthe mandibular fossae
Centric Relation
This is a base measurement because it can be easily repeated
Centric Relation
These are normal areas of contacts and are checked with articulating paper during occlusal examination
Centric Stops
These are abnormal " flat surfaces" of the contacts
Wear facets
centric stops for the maxillary arch are located where?
central and lingual
centric stops for the mandibular arch are located where?
central and buccal
what is the physiological rest position of the jaw?
2-3 millimeters of space between arches
In Malocclusion what is the most common problem?
crowding of teeth
In malocclusion what is the the second most common problem?
excessive overjet of max incisors
Maxilla and mandible in normal relation. MB cusp of max. 1st molar in line w/buccal groove of mand. 1st molar. NEUTROCLUSION
Class I
Mandible is retruded in relation to maxilla, RETROGNATHIC
Class II
Mandible is protruded in relation to maxilla, PROGNATHIC
Class III
This is based on the relationship of the 1st molars to each other
Angie's Classification
buccal groove of mand. 1st molar is distal to the MB cusp of Max. 1st molar
DIV. I: of class II with relationship with protuded central
DIV. II of class II with relationship with lingually inclined incisors
Class II
buccal groove of mand. 1st molar is mesial to the MB cusp of Max. 1st molar. Considered Mesioclusion
Class III
Movement of mandible to the left and right characterized lateral excursions
Lateral Excursion
premolars and molar may stay in contact for an extended period during disclusion
Group function
if a single tooth contacts in occlusion rather than all posterior teeth at the same time.. what is this term
Premature Contacts
The ideal occlusion has:
- Angie Class I relationship
-Flat occlusal plane with slgiht Curve of Spee
-No spaces between teeth, tight contacts
-No rotated teeth
-Crowns have slight mesial tilt
the first permanent molar erupts directly into proper occlusion
Terminal Step
1st permanent molar erupts end-to-end
Terminal plane
this is the most common of the primary molar relationship
mesial step
**distal of mand. 2nd primary molar mesial to maxillary counterpart
2nd primary molar flush on distal surface
Flush Terminal plane
Mandibular molars distally placed compared to maxillary molar
Distal step
what are parafunctional habits?
Clenching
Bruxism
Abfraction
