T/F you can move endodontic treated teeth
True
Is it the pulp or the PDL that in important in tooth movement?
-PDL
When uprighting a tipped molar what happens?
-You increase the crown height and reduce the depth of the mesial pocket
What is one of the most significant complications of molar uprighting?
-A patient with a high mandibular plane angle
How many mm between teeth do you need to place an implant?
7 mm
When orthodontic brackets are placed on an adult patient the decision as to where to place the brackets or bands is not determined by the anatomy of the tooth but by what?
-The interproximal bone level
IF the bone level is flat between adjacent teeth and the marginal ridges are ate significantly different levels, correction of the marginal ridge discrepancy orthodontically produces what?
-A hemiseptal defect in the bone
What type of lesion on the teeth is the most difficult to maintain and can worsen during ortho therapy?
-Furcation defect
What is a class I furcation?
-Very shallow and do not enter the furcation deeply
What is a class II furcation?
-Extend into the furcation but does not completely go through
What is a class 3 furcation?
-Lesion goes completely through the furcation
T/F Long term incisal wear with subsequent overeruption results in short clinical crown and disproportionate marginal gingiva
True
T/F Orthodontic intrusion provides the potential benefit of limiting the restored area to enamel and ofetn results in a more conservative bonded veneer restoration
True
