25
opening of tmj in multiple planes
opening and closing, protrusion and retrusion, lateral excursion/deviation
26
this movement occurs 1st, mandible rotates against disc, first 20 mm of mandibular opening
rotational movement
27
this movement occurs 2nd
gliding movement
28
mandible and disc glide down articular eminence, allows for remaining open
gliding movement
29
maximum opening
50-60mm
30
normal opening
anything 40mm or above
31
opening is a combination of
depression and protrusion of mandible
32
opening muscles
lateral pterygoids and suprahyoid
33
closing muscles
temporalis, masseter, medial pterygoid
34
closing is what movements(combination of)
elevation and retraction of mandible
35
what 2 movements occur throughout speech and mastication
lateral deviation and protrusion
36
ipsilateral condyle rotates, contralateral condyle moves forward and down eminence, contralateral lateral pterygoid muscle causes movement
lateral movement
37
example of left lateral movement:
1. left(ipsilateral) condyle rotates 2. right(contralateral) condyle moves forward and down eminence 3. right(contralateral) lateral pterygoid muscles causes movement
38
involves translation or gliding of both joints down articular eminence
protrusive movements
39
muscles of protrusive movements
bilateral contraction of lateral pterygoids
40
muscles of retrusion
temporalis muscle
41
does mandible move up or down to eat?
no
42
do teeth touch when resting?
no
43
resting space/freeway space
2-4mm of space between teeth resting
44
loss of teeth does what to freeway space?
alters freeway space
45
the stylomandibular ligament separates
parotid and submandibular salivary gland
46
two basic types of movement for tmj
gliding(sliding) and rotational(or hinge)
47
movement occurs mainly between the disc and the mandibular condyle in the lower synovial cavity
rotation
48
occurs mainly between the articular eminence of temporal bone in the upper synovial cavity, with the disc plus the condyle moving forward or backward, and down and up articular eminence
gliding(sliding)
49
gliding movement involves
protrusion or retraction of mandible
50
movements accomplished with rotation
depression or elevation of mandible
51
during mastication what movement
laterally deviated position back to the midline
52
muscles involved with depressing mandible
anterior suprahyoid muscles
53
protrusion of mandible, moving mandible forward movement and muscles
gliding in both upper synovial cavities; lateral pterygoids with bilateral contraction
54
retraction of mandible, moving it backwards | movement and muscles
gliding in both upper synovial cavities; posterior part of temporalis and suprahyoid with bilateral contraction
55
elevation and retraction of mandible, closing jaws | movement and muscles
gliding in both upper synovial cavities and rotation in both lower synovial cavities; masseter, temporalis, medial pterygoid with bilateral contraction
56
depression and protrusion of mandible, opening jaws
gliding in both upper synovial cavities and rotation in both lower synovial cavities; suprahyoid and lateral pterygoids with bilateral contraction
57
lateral deviation of mandible to shift mandible to contralateral side
gliding in one upper synovial cavity and while the condyle and disc of other side spin around an approximately vertical axis within upper synovial cavity; lateral pterygoid with unilateral contraction
58
contact between teeth; relationship between the maxillary and mandibular teeth when they approach each other, as occurs during chewing or at rest
occlusion
59
the mesiobuccal cusp of the upper first molar occludes with the buccal groove of the lower first molar
normal occlusion
60
same as normal occlusion but characterized by crowding, rotations, and other positional irregularities
class 1 malocclusion
61
the mesiobuccal cusp of the upper first molar occludes anterior to the buccal groove of the lower first molar "overbite". two subclasses
class 2 malocclusion
62
the mesiobuccal cusp of the upper first molar occludes posterior to the buccal groove of the lower first molar "underbite"
class 3 malocclusion
63
the relation of the mandible to the maxilla when the condyles are in the most superior and posterior position in the fossa
centric relation
64
the occlusion of opposing teeth when the mandible is in centric relation; this may or may not coincide with the maximal intercuspation
centric occlusion
65
the complete intercuspation of the opposing teeth independent of condylar position, sometimes referred to as the "best fit of the teeth regardless of the condylar position"
maximal intercuspation
66
movement of the mandible while in centric relation, from the initial occlusal contact into maximum intercuspation – The difference between CENTRIC OCCLUSION and MAXIMAL INTERCUSPATION, if there is a difference
centric slide
67
symptoms of tmd
pain, swelling, muscle spasms, limited movement and opening, clicking, popping, and locking of joint
68
causes of tmd
bone pathology(condylar changes, ankylosis), muscle and tendon pathology (temporalis tendonitis), nerve pathology(trigeminal neuralgia), inflammatory(infection, RA), noninflammatory (osteoarthritis), neoplasia(ex. tumors), disc pathology(perforations, dislocations)
69
most common causes of tmd
disc derangement/displacement and perforation
70
disc almost always displaced
anteriorly
71
disc derangement includes:
disc displacement with reduction, disc displacement without reduction, joint dislocation
72
disc stretches over time; moves in front of condylar head and limits movement; clicking and popping typical symptom, mri is used to diagnose disc disorder
disc displacement
73
hearing and palpating joint noises during opening and closing, protrusive opening and closings stop the reciprocal click
disc displacement with reduction
74
history of clicking and popping with or without intermittent locking, complaint of limited mouth opening
disc displacement without reduction
