Lec 12 - Occlusal Morphology Determinants Flashcards
mutual protected occlusion does NOT have
working side teeth contacting
horizontal stuff from quiz
grooves and ridges
vertical stuff from quiz
cusp height
most people choose to chew on blank side
one
pattern of chewing stroke
tear drop
masticatory cycle
open, mandible toward side we are chewing on, back to MIC
three neuromuscular determinants of occlusion
bruxism, mastication, bite force
average person bites this hard
150-250 lbs
edentulous person bites this hard
5-8 lbs
max edentulous force like with denture
50 lbs
bruxism will cause a blank because mandibular buccal cusps will be worn down and shorter than the lingual cusps
reverse curve of wilson
anterior controlling factor of occlusion
anterior guidance
posterior controlling factor of occlusion
condylar guidance (angle of eminence)
vertical determinants of occlusal morphology
cusp height and fossa depth
steeper angle of the eminence, the blank the posterior cusps
taller/steeper
