Q

three steps to bimanual manipulatoin

A
  1. relaxed muscles when the mandible is hinging
  2. PROGRESSIVE TMJ loading load the test joints to verify Centric Relation
  3. Evaluate centric relation relative to tooth contacts - taking a CR WAX RECORD

Q

Step 1? hand placement initially? then what follows? what is the end goal result?

A
  1. Relaxed muscles when the mandible is hinging
    Cradle the mandibular angles with the fingers and place the thumbs on the chin
    THEN release the thumbs and ask patient to arc their mouth open and closed, about 1-2 inches - with the teeth slightly apart.
    Goal - 9/10 the mandible will freely hinge

(if the muscles apppear to be tense on hinging, place a deprogrammer to relax teh muscles

Q

Step 2? hand placement initially? then what follows? what is the end goal result?

A

Step 2: Load Test the joints to verify Centric Relation
While patient is hinging - dentist place thumbs on chin to begin to lightly torque the mandible
Then ask patient if they feel any sign of tension or tenderness

Q

describe torquing

A

Torquing involves an equal pressure with the fingers wrapped around the angles of the mandible and the thumbs pressing DOWN AND FORWARD toward the chest
GOAL- to create a vector of force that is both superior and anterior within the joints bilaterally

Q

asking if they feel Tension is aka

A

subtle way of asking whether the Lateral Pterygoid muscles is/are resisting full joint seating. creating positive awareness in front of the joints (extrascapular)

Q

how to prevent getting out of synch with the patient?

A

Have the patient contiunue to make small hinge movements while you seat with torquing
hold it steadt while the patient makes small rotation movements
*it will prevent getting out of synch with the patient

Q

Step 3? hand placement initially? then what follows? what is the end goal result?

A

Evaluate Centric Relation relative to tooth contacts

  1. once bimanual manipulation is verified through loading and pt. feedback with no discomfort - can begin evaluating occlusion
  2. Hold joints in centric relation - patient can close to the first point of tooth contact
  3. IDENTIFY the first tooth to contact– then the patient can squeeze their teeth together into the maximum intercuspation position.
  4. Observe if there is a CR/MIP discrepancy or slide.
    * if yes note the direction and distance of the slide
  5. DOCUMENT the first tooth cotact in CR, the distance and direction of the slide, and the teeth that touch in maximum intercuspation.

Q

important suggestion when ask patient to close to first point of contact

Q

Five Factors of Mandibular Movement

A
  1. Initiating Position (centric relation)
  2. Types of motion (rotation, translation)
  3. direction of motion/planes
  4. degree of movement
  5. clinical significance of movement
21
Q

Centric Relation aka

A

CR or CRC
MOST SUPERIOR-ANTERIORLY musculo-skeletal stable position of the condyles bilaterally within the glenoid fossaw

TM Joints are in a state of health, tend to approximate this location repeatdly and reproducible with slightly separated (disclusion) and the muscles of masticationi are relaxed

22
Q

Do teeth touch in CR?

A

NO - unrelated to tooth position

23
Q

CR location compared to CO/MIP in the envelope?

A

CR is slightly more posterior and inferior than MIP

24
Q

in sagittal view of posselt’s envelope of motion where is CR in relation to CO?

A

more posterio-inferior

when teeth are together the point goes up

25
Q

describe anterior discal displacement?

reduction of joint means?

A

if the articular disc gets displaced from its normal position on top of the mandibular condyle

reduction = back to normal?

26
Q

shape of disc and condylar head?

A

Disc = biconcave

Condyle = convex

27
Q

Progressive TMJ loading

A

repeat the position while applying increased force to the mandible in a vector

28
Q

deprogramming musculature? Part of which step in bimanual manipulaition?

A

in step one of relaxed muscles when the mandible is hinging (rotation only)
can do this with cotten

anterior deprogrammers DISCLUDE (separate) posterior teeth thereby decreasing the muscle tonus

29
Q

“Romancing” the mandible? which step is it apart of?

A

HINGING * and is part of the first step with relaxing the muscles

Hands places in “cradling” the mandibular angles with the fingers and placing thumbs on the chin. Release thumbs and ask patient to arc mouth open and closed about 1 -1.5 inches with teeth slightly apart.

if muscles appear tense (tonus) on hinging, place deprogrammer to relax the muscles.
should relax muscles within a minute

30
Q

how much should chair be reclined when going through bimanual manipulation?

A

about 45 degrees

31
Q

who moves the mandible in step 1?

A

THE DENTIST

32
Q

we never load test the joints until?

A

Muscles are relaxed and the mandible is freely hinging

33
Q

step 2?

A

load test the joints to verify centric relation

34
Q

step 3?

A

CREATING CR WAX RECORD– evaluating centric relation relative to tooth contacts

35
Q

how to verify CR?

A

through the identification of the first tooth contact in CR

36
Q

Wax perforation?

A

UNACCEPTABLE – as tooth contact will cause the mandible to go into MIP

37
Q

five most common reasons for poor mandibular mounts?

A
  1. CR record is actually an excursive record
  2. incisal pin was not changed prior to mounting
  3. unlocked centric latch
  4. too much plaster
  5. was not stable (no stable cookie)
38
Q

what wax did we use for capturing CR on partner? characteristics of it

A

DENAR bite registration wax
pre-fabricated for ease of use

malleable (soft) when warm
BRITTLE WHEN COLD

wide parts go towards molar
there is a space for a deprogrammer

39
Q

factors related to Bite registration material selection?

A
  1. Accuracy
  2. Ease of Use
  3. Cost
40
Q

bite leaf gauge

A

riveted shim stock - pre fabricated and is made of polyester strips in 1/10th mm increments.
used as an anterior deprogrammer (Dr. ferrio gave us one and it is blue) for taking CR records and also in equilibration procedures

41
Q

bunny ears

A

another anterior deprogrammer

42
Q

patient asked to ‘lightly touch/ hold deprogrammer?

A

must be lightly
- painless musculature and do not want tonus

anterior deprogrammer functions to decrease tonus in the masticatory muscles

43
Q

anterior deprogrammers reduce muscle tonus in what muscles more specifically?

A

lateral and medial pterygoids

part of protrusive feature

44
Q

major adjustable feature on our mark 320 articulator is?

A

Condylar inclination-
PROTRUSIVE movements – with adjustments made to condylar inclincations (0-60 degrees and we have ours pre set right now for entire semester to 30 degrees)

0= no inclination

45
Q

protrusive records

A

USED WHEN WANT TO ADJUST CONDYLAR INCLINATIONS

used to set left and right condylar inclinations for various diagnostic and restorative dental procedures

46
Q

eccentric record

A

are used to set other condylar positions for various other diagnostic and restorative procedures

47
Q

incisal guide pin for mounting mandibular?

A

SET IT TO +5

  • this will compensate for the wax and open the bow more
  • if you forget to do this the pin will not reach the table
48
Q

position of red support pin when mounting lower cast?

A

DO NOT RAISE IT

49
Q

inaccurate CR records means?

A

innacurate lower cast mountings and inaccurate lower cast mountings will NOT enable correct occlusal anaylsis
