IN FEMALES: Incisal edges of Maxillary Anteriors follow
the ________
LOWER LIP CURVATURE
IN FEMALES: Distal surface of _______ are rotated in a posterior direction when viewed from frontal view
CENTRAL INCISIORS
FEMALES: _____ surface of lateral incisor is often seen in anterior relation to central incisor
MESIAL
FEMALES: ______ surface of canine is rotated in a posterior direction
DISTAL
MALES: ______ surface of lateral incisor is hidden behind the distal surface of the central
MESIAL
MALES: The canines are rotated less posterior so the ______ 2/3 of the labial surface is exposed when viewed in a labial view
MESIAL
The two principal colors in teeth are ______ and _____
yellow and gray
Never show your patient the ______ shade unless they ask for it
LIGHTEST
Anterior Maxilla Pattern of Resorption: Following extraction, resorption is from ______ towards the ______. Therefore anterior teeth should NOT be placed directly over the _____.
LABIAL towards the LINGUAL…..RIDGE
SOUNDS: if the lips are not supported properly by the teeth these sounds may be defective
“p”, “b”
SOUNDS: these are produced by contact between the maxillary incisors and the posterior one-third of the lower lip
“f” , “v”
SOUNDS: these are made by contact between the tip of the tongue and the palate at the rugae area with a small space for the escape of air
“S” , “sh”
Lingupalatal “S” sounds: If the space is too small a ______ usually results
whistle
Linguopalata “S”: if the space is too broad and thin, the s sound is replaced by the sh sound which sounds like a ____
LISP
Labial Incisal Postion- middle aged female = __mm, middle aged male = __mm
female = 7mm, male = 5mm
young female has greater ______ of smile line
curvature
