Q

describe ideal molar occlusion

A

mesiobuccal cusp of the upper permanent molar occludes with the buccal groove on the mandible first molar

54
Q

describe ideal incisal occlusion

A

slightly proclined so the lower incisal edge is in contact with the cingulum plateau of the maxillary teeth. the overjet and overbite 2-4mm on average

55
Q

describe the dentition of newborns

60
Q

what is skeletal class one

A

where the mandible is 2-3mm posterior to the maxilla

61
Q

what is skeletal class two

when the mandible is retruded relative to the maxilla

62
Q

what is skeletal class three
