Goals of occlusion
maintain stability of existing stable occlusion
-improve stability of an unstable occlusion
Articular Eminence is comprised of?
-thick cortical bone
Mandibular condyles located in centric relation?
What determines the position?
CR and ICP ideally?
-anteriorly, superiorly brace position along articular eminence of glenoid fossa with articular disc interposed b/w condyle and eminence
-condylar position
-ideally CR = ICP-40-60%
Shape of mandibular condyle? Reason? Rest on?
-elliptical capapble of stress distribution, center of articular disc
Articular disc properties?
-anterior: attached via muscle fibers from superior head of lateral ptrygoid, ligaments to medial and lateral heads to condyle
-Center: Free of nerves and vascularture
Posterior: blood vessels and nerve
Mandibular Movements:
-Rotation
-Translation
-Bennett
Rotational Movements:
-horizontal axis: movement purely opening/closing of mandible with condyles in CR. Hinge axis
-Vertical axis: one condyle in fossa other moves forward. Occurs on side of laterotrusive movement
-Sagittal Axis: One condyle moves forward and down articular eminence. Occurs on mediotrusive side
Translational Movement:
1. Purely roational movement first 10-13 degree arch and 20-25mm sepearation.
2. Articular disk stationary
3. Once beyond this arc, condyle moves forward and downwardtranslational
Bennett Movement:
Immediate Side Shift:
Progressive Side shift:
-mandible moves to left:
Immediate: right condyle moves straight medially as it leaves CR
-usually .4-3.0mm
-occurs prior to condyle translating forward and downward
Progressive side shift:
-after immediate side shift, right condyle will continue to move medially but now will have a proportional forward movement.
Balancing inclines are?
-nonworking side
-mandible: buccal cusp, lingual incline
-maxilla: lingual cusp, buccal incline
Working inclines are?
-working side
-mandible: lingual cusp, facial incline
-maxilla: buccal cusp, lingual incline
Working inclines are?
-working side
-mandible: lingual cusp facial incline, buccal cusp facial incline
-maxilla: buccal cusp lingual incline, lingual cusp lingual incline
Balancing inclines are?
-nonworking side
-mandible: buccal cusp, lingual incline
-maxilla: lingual cusp, buccal incline
Increase immediate side shift?
-increase in BL dimension of MR, fossa, central groove
-flat part in middle part of tooth wider
Increase PSS?
-balancing inclines become flatter
Left and Right sides during Bennett Movement in a left laterotrusion
-Left side:
-laterotrusive/working movement
-left condyle is rotating
-shift laterally and posteriorly
-right side:
-mediotrusive/non-working movement
-right condyle is orbiting
-arcs forward and medially
Bennett Angle:
-horizontal plane: non working condyle moves in a line/curvilinear pathway downward and to the right. Angle made to sagittal axis is called Bennett Angle.
Determinants of Mandibular Movement
-Posterior: Right and left temperomandibular joints
-Anterior: teeth
-neuromuscular system
What can a dentist alter in mandibular movements?
-posterior no
-anterior can be changed
Occlusal Inteferences
-centric: during closure of mandible and prevent centric relation
-working: on same side jaw is moving on posterior teeth
-non-working: opposite side of movement on posterior teeth
-protrusive: posterior teeth during protrusive movements
Normal vs. Pathological Occlusion
CR doesn’t equal ICP but remain asymptomatic due to muscle adaptations
-But when add additional stress such as clenching or bruxingget pain
Okeson’s Optimum Occlusion
1. CR = ICP: Mouth closes, condyles are in most superior/anterior position on posterior slopes of articular eminences with discs property interposed. As this position there is even and simulataenous contact of all posterior teeth. Anterior teeth contact lighter than posterior
2. Axial Loading of Teeth: All tooth contacts provide axial loading of occlusal forces along long axis of tooth
3. Canince guide laterally: Laterotrusive movement there are guided contacts on working side to disclude non-working side. Canine Guidance
4. Anterior guide protrusively: Protrusive: adequate tooth guided contact on anterior teeth to disclude posterior teeth, incisor guidance
5. Posterior contacts heavier than anterior
Organization of Occlusion
1. Bilateral Balanced occlusion: every single tooth on that side is hitting at the same time as the other side, all inclines working together
- max tooth contacts during all excursive movement. Only possible in complete denture cases where non-working contacts prevent tipping of prosthesis
2. Unilateral Balance Occlusion: group fxn, where all teeth contact on working side during laterotrusion to help guide/lift the jaw; Excessive forces are prevented on mediotrusive side and occlusion/supporting cusps remain stable. Useful for full mouth recontstructions
3. Mutually Protected occlusion: anterior and canine guidance. Anterior teeth causes immediate separation/disclusion of posterior teeth during excursive movements.
In ICP, posterior teeth ar eloaded along long axis, and posterior teeth protect anterior teeth in ICP. CR = ICP
Anatomic Determinants
-molar disclusion
-condylar guidace
-anterior guidance
Molar Disclusion
-Molar disclusion: discrepancy between repearted excrusive movements:
-.2mm CR
-.3mm working
-.8 mm nonworking/ptrosuive
-makes sure to allow enough room between cusps so no crashing during disclusion
-condylar guidance:
Angle is? Average? Steeper/flatter?
-angle between articulating surface of fossa and surface of condyle
- Average = 30 degrees
-Steeper the condylar path the higher the cusps may be
-the flatter the condylar path the shorter the cusps MUST be
Anterior Guidance Contact? Angle is? Average? Steeper/flatter?
-Lower incisor contact lingual surface of uppers and guide in protrusion
-50-70 degrees average
-angle = lingual surface on maxillary and horizon
-steeper the angle of the incisors the taller the cusps maybe
-the flatter the angle of incisors the shorter the cusps must be
VO large HO is small pathway is?
More vertical/steep
VO is small HO is large pathway is?
More horizontal
