28
Q

how long does phase 1 ortho usually last?

A

6-12 months

29
Q

what 3 things does phase 1 ortho do?

A

1-corrects existing abnormalities
2-creates conditions where the dentition can function and developing normal
3-final primary teeth are lost and perm. erupt

30
Q

When does the American Association of Ortho recommend every child receive ortho eval and pano?

A

before age 8

31
Q

when can a pt move on to phase 2 ortho?

A

after phase 1 and after all primary teeth are lost

*around 11 or 12

32
Q

what are 4 reasons to refer your patient for early ortho?

A

1-crowding
2-abnormal growth and development
3-ectopic eruption and impactions
4-traumatic occlusion/crossbites

33
Q

phase 1 (early) ortho can help correct what 3 things?

A

1-abnormal growth
2-abnormal habits
3-fix things that may result in trauma

34
Q

what 3 things can phase 1 ortho help correct regarding possibility for trauma

A

1-severe deep bites
2-cross bites
3-protruded maxillary incisors

35
Q

T/F anterior crossbites in primary dentition is common

A

False. Anterior cross bites in primary dentition indicates a skeletal growth problem

  • same with class III
  • mandibular growth lags
36
Q

what types of abnormal habits can phase 1 ortho help?

A

mouth breathing, finger sucking, tongue position posture

37
Q

What is the most basic sign of future crowding?

A

Lack of inter-dental spacing in the primary dentition

38
Q

the maxillary anterior primary teeth are what % smaller than their perm. successors?

A

75% smaller

39
Q

mandibular anterior primary teeth combine to be how many mm smaller mesio-distally than their successors?

A

6 mm smaller

40
Q

T/F arch perimeter does increase after eruption, however it is a small increase in the maxilla and essentially non-existent in the mandible

A

TRUE

41
Q

T/F because of arch growth, it can be relied upon for further dental alignment to alleviate crowding

A

FALSE

*arch growth is not sufficient for that

42
Q

what 3 things are used to create space in mandible for mild crowding?

A

1-increase arch width across canines
2-labial positioning of the central and lateral incisors
3-distal shift of perm. canines when primary molars are lost

43

Q

During eruption sometimes the lateral incisors impinge on _______ causing them to ______ and be lost

A

canines, resorb

56
Q

what happens if only 1 canine is missin?

A

57
Q

what are 3 options for maxillary crowding?

A

1-expansion
2-limited ortho on 1st molars and incisors
3- extract primary canines to create space

62
Q

T/F early treatment is really helpful for class II
