Q

, measures the degree of protrusion and retrusion of the chin but uses Frankfort Horizontal as a reference plane.
• It also indicates the horizontal position of the mandible relative to the cranial base.

  • Note: Using all three angles and both reference planes, the clinician can make a good evaluation of the position of the mandible and determine whether the mandible is normal, protrusive or retrognathic.
  • In addition, the prominence of the chin may also be determined.
  • It is possible to have a retrognathic mandible but prominent chin.

Q

The ______ is represented by a line which bisects the distance between the left and right mandibular lower borders and connects anteriorly with Menton.
-can also be used as a measure of mandibular growth and lower facial growth direction.

A

mandibular plane

28
Q
  • Angle between Sella –Nasion and the line connecting Sella to Gnathion.
  • is an estimate of mandibular growth direction. • A larger angle indicates a more downward and vertical growth direction of the mandible.
  • A smaller angle indicates a more horizontal and anterior growth direction of the mandible.
  • It also indicates the degree of downward and forward position of the chin in relation to the upper face.

33
Q

•This angular measurement determines the
inclination of the central incisor relative to
the anterior cranial base.
•A greater than average angle indicates
proclination (labioversion) of incisors as
often seen in Class II/D1.
•A smaller than average angle indicates
upright or retroclined (lingually inclined)
incisors as often seen in Class II/D2.

A

U1 to SN

34
Q

•The relationship of the maxilary central incisor to
the N-A reference line is used to establish the
position of the maxillary incisors relative to the
maxillary apical base.
•Both the inclination of the long axis of the incisor to
the line and the distance of the labial surface of the
incisor in front of the line are measured.
•The inclination indicates whether the tooth has
been tipped to its position or moved bodily.

A

U1 to NA

35
Q
  • The millimeter distance establishes the prominence of the incisors relative to the supporting bone.
  • Labially inclined (proclined) incisors will have a greater than average angular and linear measurement (Class II / D1).
  • Upright (retroclined) incisors will have a smaller than average angular and linear measurement (Class II /D2).
  • Positive values are recorded if the labial surface of the incisor is anterior to the NA line, negative values if posterior.

Nasion- A point

36
Q

•The relationship of the mandibular central incisor
to the N-B reference line is used to establish the
position of the mandibular incisors relative to the
mandibular apical base.
•Both the inclination of the long axis of the incisor
to the line and the distance of the labial surface of
the incisor in front of the line are measured.
•The inclination indicates whether the tooth has
been tipped to its position or moved bodily.

37
Q

• The millimeter distance establishes the prominence of
the incisors relative to the supporting bone.
• Labially inclined (proclined) incisors will have a greater
than average angular and linear measurement (Class II /
D1).
• Upright (retroclined) incisors will have a smaller than
average angular and linear measurement (Class II /D2).
• Positive values are recorded if the labial surface of the
incisor is anterior to the NB line, negative values if
posterior.

A

Nasion - B point

38
Q
•It defines the axial inclination 
between the mandibular incisor 
and the inferior border of the 
mandible. 
•The more the incisor is labially 
inclined, the greater the angle.

•IMPA (Incisor Mandibular Plane Angle).

39
Q
•Measures the relative position 
along the long axis of the most 
anteriorly positioned maxillary 
and mandibular central incisors. 
•It determines the degree of labial 
inclination of the incisors. 
•The more proclined the incisors are, 
the less the angle.
•The more retroclined the incisors are, 
the more the angle.
