Anatomy Ch 12 Flashcards
Functional occlusion
Contact of the teeth during biting and chewing movements
What is the key to angles classification
Describes and classifies occlusion and malocclusion (perm maxillary first molar)
Which two teeth vary in form
Lateral incisors 7,10 and 3rd molars
Pegged laterals
Vary in form second most to wisdom teeth. Frequently missing and pointed (maxillary lateral incisors)
Mamelons
Rounded enamel extensions on Incisal edge on central and lateral incisors (looks like shark teeth)
Fossa
Wide shallow depression on the lingual surfaces of anterior teeth
Cingulum
Raised rounded area on the cervical third of the lingual surface
Class 1 occlusion
Neutroclusion ideal mesiodistal relationship maxillary first molar occludes with mesiobuccal groove of mandibular first molar
Class 2 occlusion
Distoclusion mesiobuccal cusp of maxillary first molar occludes more than a premolars width mesial to the mesiobuccal groove of mandibular first molar
Class 2 division 1 occlusion
Labioversion incisors tilt toward lips
Class 2 division 2 occlusion
Linguoversion tipping toward tongue. Lateral incisors may be tipped labially and mesially
Class 3 occlusion
Mesioclusion protrusion of mandible
Tooth numbering system used most in US
Universal/national system. 1-32, a-t
International standards organization system
2 digit first number is quadrant and second is tooth within quadrant. Tooth 8=11, tooth 1=18, tooth 9=21, tooth 16=28 etc
Palmer notation system
Each quadrant given tooth bracket either vertical or horizontal viewing patient from outside. Each incisor on mandible and maxillary begin with 1 and end with 8
