Etiology of Malocclusions- FINAL - Dr. Retrouvey Flashcards
Predisposing factors to malocclusion include:
- Genetics
- Functional matrix
- Disturbances in embryologic development
- traumas
Primary etiological sites include:
- neuromuscular system
- Bone
- Teeth
- Soft tissues
List diseases associated with the following primary etiologic sites:
- neuromuscular system
- bone
- teeth
- soft tissues
- cerebral palsy (results in severe malocclusion)
- Osteogenesis imperfecta (Col1a1 and Col1a2)
- Ectodermic dysplasia
- sclerodermia
Disturbances in embryologic development may be due to:
teratogens
May interfere with cellular differentiation during pregnancy:
teratogens
Some examples of teratogens include:
alcohol, drugs, pollution, poor nutrition
We used to think that cleft lip and palate could be due to teratogens but the idea has shifted now to them being due to:
genetics
most common craniofacial abnormality:
cleft lip & palate
Crouzon syndromes is a type of:
craniosynostosis
Crouzon syndrome (cranosynostosis syndrome) is caused by:
early fusion of sutures
(lower jaw develops normal, orbits close early)
Crouzon is characterized by:
- bulging eye
- small maxilla
What is a typical treatment for crouzon syndrome:
distraction osteogenesis
Craniosynostosis (Crouzon’s syndrome) is purely a ____ disease
bony
Disease characterized by underdevelopment of the mid face & eyes that seem to bulge from their sockets:
crouzon’s syndrome
Disease characterized by underdeveloped cheek and jawbones, a prominent nose, broad mouth, and characteristically small chin with steep lower jaw angle:
treacher collins
When the maxillary and mandibular jawbones are both under developed this is considered:
Bimaxillary retrusion
In dentistry when you have syndromes, these are typically associated with:
hypodontia
(Exception CCD)
Disease characterized by:
- delayed closure (ossification) of the space between the bones of the skull (fontanels)
- Premature closing of coronal suture
- Protruding jaw and protruding brow bone
- wide nasal bridge due to increase space between the eyes
- high arched palate or possible cleft palate
- short stature
- scoliosis of spine
cleidocranial dysplasia
Describe the mandible of a patient with CCD:
Typically a class III because of hypertrophy mandible (protrusion)
Dental abnormalities of CCD patient include:
failure to lose baby teeth and delayed or absent formation of teeth, slow eruption of secondary teeth
Osteogenesis imperfecta, the ___ is affected
dentin
What class of malocclusion is often seen in OI patients?
class III malocclusion as well as posterior open bite
- midline deviation
- asymmetry: repercussion on the condyles
- posterior open bite
- lack of chewing capability
These are all characteristic of:
OI
