25
Q

How is VDO established

A

as part of the process of jaw development and maturation. Changes overtime with resorbtion

26
Q

What are 3 test that aid in establishing correct VDO by occlusion rims?

A
  1. Visual observation (look at space btwn re
  2. Esthetic facial postion
  3. Phonetics test (S sound)
27
Q

The postural position of the mandible when an individual is resting comfortably in an upright position and the associated muscles are in a state of minimal contractual activity

A

Physiological Rest Postion/ Verticle Dimension at rest VDR

All muscles resting, mandible in this postion >23hrs a day

28
Q

Space formed when all muscles are at rest, teeth are seperated.

Space between the occlusal surfaces of the Maxillary and Mandibular teeth while the Mandible is in rest position (usually around premolar area)

A

Freeway space

unclenched

29
Q

2-4mm of freeway space in what area?

A

Around canine area

Can change if head postrue changed

30
Q
A
31
Q

Normally, VDO is ____ short from the ____

A

VDO is 2-4mm short (freeway space) from the VDR

32
Q

How much freeway space is normally seen?

A

2-4mm of freway space

33
Q

How to find exact amount of freeway space steps?

A
  1. Mark 2 dots, one on chin one on tip of nose
  2. Measure dots in occlsuion VDO
  3. Ask pt to swallow and realx, measure VDR
  4. Subtract **VDR-VDO= FS **
34
Q
A
34
Q

If FS is >4mm: VDO is?

A

Overclosed

35
Q

If FS is < 2mm VDO is?

A

Too open

36
Q

What is one method for observing VDR in denture patients?

A

By using wax rims

37
Q

How thick do you like wax rims on max and mandible?

A
  • 22mm thick Max
  • 18mm thick Mand
38
Q

A result of what?

  • Excessive loading of denture bearing tissues.
  • Elevator muscles are unable to return to their normal resting length.
  • Continuous muscular activity results in pain.
A

Reduction of Freeway space, esentially little to no rest

39
Q

A result of what?

  • **Reduction of masticatory ** efficiency. (cant bring teeth together)
  • Poor facial appearance and cheek biting.
  • Developing symptoms related to TMJ.
A

Too much freeway space

40
Q
A
40
Q

What is this a result of?

A

Caused but overclosure of denture,reduced VDO

41
Q

Failure to provide an adequate ____ results in the anterior lower ridge assuming a more labial relationship to the upper ridge.

A

Bad VDO= anteiror lower ridge more labial than upp ridge

42
Q

A result of?

face looks distorted and lips are incompetent.

A

VDO too open, large

43
Q

A result of?

A

VDO is too closed; short!

border appears thin, wrinkles appear around lips, and chin protrudes.

44
Q

What are some words for the phonetics test of VDO?
