8 of final Flashcards
labiolingual alignment, mesiodistal alighnment, vertical position
factors and forces that determine the tooth position
tooth position based on
1
2
3
- muscles (cheeks, lips, and tongue)
- genetic (size and shape of arch and teeth-> available sace)
- habits
the relationship of the teeth to each other within the dental arch
intra-arch tooth alighment
plane that curves to fit the occlusal surfaces and incisal edges of all the teeth:
is this flat?
plane of occlusion
no NOT flat
concave:
convex:
concave: mand
convex: max
determined by the long axis of the tooth (crown and root)
angulation of the teeth
angulation of mand teeth sagittal plane explain:
anterior teeth= labially inclined 20 degrees
premolars= mesially inclined 6 degrees
molars= mesially inclined (10-15 degrees)
angulation of max teeth sagittal plane explain:
anterior teeth=labially inclined (CI most at 28 degrees)
premolars= mesially inclined 9 degrees
molars= mesially inclined 12 degrees
angulation of mand teeth frontal plane explain:
anterior teeth= vertical inclined 0
premolars= 1st= labial inclined 9
2nd= lingual inclined 9
molars= lingual inclined 20
angulation of max teeth frontal plane explain:
anterior= incisors= distal
canines= mesial
premolars= slight buccal
molars= buccal
antero-posterior curvature of occlusal plane
curve of spee
medio-lateral curve of occlusal plane
curve of wilson
when posterior teeth occlude, they are loaded
axially
what are designed to take heavy lodas, support the occlusal vertical dimension
posterior teeth
when anterior teeth occlude, they ________ through their long axis
are NOT loaded through they long axis (guiding excursive movements)
