Occlusion is the interaction of the __________ structures
stomatognathic
what are the stomatognathic structures?
mouth, jaws, and closely associated structures
what is Gnathology?
the science that treats the biology of the masticatory mechanism as a whole (morphology, anatomy, histology, physiology, pathology)
what is the masticatory system made up of?
bones, muscles, ligaments, and teeth and nervous system
what are the 3 muscles of mastication?
1- Elevators
2- Protruders
3- Retruders
what are the 3 controlling mechanisms of Occlusion?
1- Neuromuscular system
2- right and left temporomandibular joints
3- contacting surfaces of the teeth
what are the muscles of elevation?
Temporalis
Masseter
Medial Pterygoid
what muscle is a protruded?
Lateral Pterygoid. (the condyle moves forward which will move the jaw back)
what are the 4 supra hyoids?
geniohyoid
mylohyoid
digastric
stylohyoid
what do the suprahoids function to do?
elevate hyoid bone
depress mandible when hyoid bone is fixed
what are the Infrahyoids?
1- Thyrohyoid
2- Sternohyoid
3- Sternothyroid
4- Omohyoid
what is the function of the infra hyoids?
lower hyoid bone and larynx steady hyoid bone
so during normal closure, the elevator pull the jaw up and what will relax?
the suprahyoids
were does the mandibular nerve have motor innervation to?
temporalis
masseter
medial pterygoid
lateral pterrygoid
Classification of Malocclusion:

Class 1=
Class 2=
Class 3=
1= Neutroclusion
2= Distoclusion
3= Mesioclusion

(we are referring things to the mandible. So in distoclusion, the mandible is more distal than it should be in Neutroclusion)
what is centric Occlusion (CO)?
the position of the mandible when there is maximum planned contact and or/intercuspation
what is Gypsum?
it is calcium sulfate dihydrate
there are 3 types of the mineral calcium sulfate...
1- Andhydrite (Anhydrate)
2- Bassanite (Hemihydrate (half a water))
3 Gpysum (dihydrate)

All three can be converted to one another by either adding heat or by adding water.
the US is the largest producer of Gypsum, the primary _______ source of calcium sulfate
natural
Gypsum is very soft material and can be ground to a powder and calcined to remove most of the ________.

what is then added to the powder to form a plastic mass that can be molded?

the mass will then harden and will be restored to it's original shape.
water.

water
Gypsum is about what percent weight by water?

and volume by water?
21%

50%
when the water dries in the gypsum of the mold, what do we get?
water of crystallization
what happens at boiling point, 100 degrees C?
there's no crystalline reaction
Gypsum has immense commercial value. Like what?
construction
Agriculture
Food
medical
chalk
cosmetics
beer
dental
is Gypsum the most commonly used material in dentistry?
yes!
what do we use Gypsum for?
Dental casts and Dental Dies
what is a dental die?
it is like 1 tooth.
so it looks like dental dies are used to fabricate outside of the patients mouth. what is this called?
indirect restorations
Gypsum is also found in toothpaste
yes
what are the 3 most important types of relatively pure gypsum in dentistry?
1- model plaster (white)
2- Dental Stone (Yellow)
3- High strength dental stone (green at CU)

All three types have identical chemical formulas (Calcium sulfate hemihydrate)

The thing that's different is that they have different physical properties.

There's no "all-purpose" gypsum products.
5 types of classification of dental paster and stone...
1- Plaster, Impression
2- Plaster, Model
3- Dental Stone
4- Dental Stone, high strength
5-Dental Stone, high strength, high expansion
what is Calcining?
Applying heat to form hemihydrate.
