Invisalign Flashcards
why invisalign - general
- improve health - periodontal occlusal health
- pre-restorative case set up
- minimally invasive pat
- aesthetics
- ## referrals healtthy patient and practice
preventing gingival disease and bone loss shuld include?
proper tooth alignment
anterior crowding of 3mm or more serves as an
individual host factorfor perio disease
study recomends preventative treatment to help patients avoid bigger future problems
everyday opportuntiies for cleat aligner therapy
recession, clefting, cold sensitivity, abfractions, fractured teeth, avoid aggressive ceramics, bruxism, open airway dentistry- increase oral cavity volume via arch shape, pre restorative case set up
50% of population has
one or more sites of gingival recession
- progressive with age
horizontal vs vertical
horizontal more detremental
prevent afractions with
proper tooth alignment
theory of non carious cervical lesions
suggests that tooth flexure arising from cyclic, eccentric occlusal forces causes their formation and progression in vulnerable cervical regions of teeth
oblique HORIZONTAL LOADING on non caroious cervical lesions resulted in greater stress concentration compared with vertical loading
acute angles– displayed higher stress concentrations at the depth of the lsion
T/F invisalign can increase oral cavity volume?
yes - “open airway dentistry”
why ortho
treating malocclusion!
FDI definition of oral health
ability to speak, smile, smell, taste, touch, chew, swalllow and convey a range of emotions through facial expression with confidence and free fom pain or discomfort, and disease of the craniofacial complex
is malocclusion a disease?
yes
- crossbites, open bites, deep bites, and overjet
crowding diastemas spacing and rotations
each section is in their disease classfication
angles classification a disease?
no not active disease
but the crossbites, deep bites, etc are considered a disease
what considered a disease
transverse and vertical discrepencies are considered disease
class I can be healthy and unhealthy
yes
same w/ II and III
uncrowded adults have ___ transverse measurement
35-39 mm
developed a healthy occlusion without orthodontic intervention
shortest distance between teeth 3 and 14 (upper first molars) measure at the gumline
3 main things crowding comes from
- improper arch form
- improper arch width
- improper buccolingual inclinnation
buccolingual inclination
the buccolingual inclination of the maxillary and mandibular posterior teeth is assessed by using a flat surface that is extended between the occlusal surfaces of the right and left posterior teeth
there should NOT BE a significant difference between the heights of the buccal and lingual cusps of the maxillary and mandibular premolars and molars with all cusps within 1MM OF THE STRAIGHT EDGE
proper overbite
1.5 to 2 mm
moderate deep bite
cover 1/2 of lower teeth
patient in permanent dentition with class I treat?
anterior. premolar crossbite
do not correct molar crossbite
open bites less than 2mm
like arches
patient in permanent dentition with class I refer?
molar crossbite
mixed dentition
open bites over 2mm
unlike arches
patient in permanent dentition with class I refer?
molar crossbite
mixed dentition
open bites over 2mm
unlike arches
patient class II what is GP treating
No A-P correction
over jet is less than or equal to 3mm
if need to correct A-P or have overjet of over 3mm REFER
class III gp?
no - never - always refer
how many photos needed for case submission
8
impression material you need to use if non digitial
PVS
5 basic zones
GP stay in what zones?
- expand - transversely
- procline A-P
- IPR (make smaller keep same radius)
- distilize
- extract
1-3 stays within the GPR range
when is IPR useful?
black triangles due to perio and shape of teeth
- crowding with inadequate formation of the papillla in gingival mbrasure
triangular shape teeth
periodontal disease
