Lec 8 Final - Movements Flashcards
only movement that involves only rotation
hinge
imaginary line around which the mandible may rotate within the sagittal plane
hinge axis (transverse horizontal)
posselt movement was first described in journal of prosthetic dentistry on this date
may 1957
posselt movement is an envelope of motion that traces the blank of mandibular central in cisors
incisal edges
mandibular border movement along the superior border of the envelop is limited by blank
teeth only
border movements are not influenced by blank
head position
head tilted up/back, we close blank
between ICP and CO
head tilted forward/down we close blank
ahead of ICP
postural rest position is this much below ICP
2-4 mm
chewing comes close the blank of movement
borders
easier to chew on blank side
left
bodily shift of the mandible toward the workign side during lateral excursion
bennett movement
bennet movement is caused by restraining influence of the blank and blank on the non working side
tmj ligaments, medial wall of glenoid fossa
average lateral movement of bennett
.75 mm
angle formed between anterior and medial movement of the non working condyle and the straight protrusive path
bennett angle
