Q

what is the net effect of angulation on posterior teeth

A

-when they occlude they are loaded axially
-designed to take heavy loads and support the occlusal vertical dimension

20
Q

what is the net effect on angulation on anterior teeth

A

-when they occlude they are not loaded through their long axis
- not designed for loading

21
Q

what is the occlusal table

A

the area defined by the cusp tips and the mesial and distal cups ridges/arms

22
Q

occlusal table is _____% of the buccolingual width of the tooth

A

50-60%

23
Q

what does the occlusal table facilitate

A

axial loading

24
Q

what are the inclines of the occlusal table and describe each

A

-inner incline: inclines inside the buccal and lingual cusp ridges
- outer inclines: inclines outside the buccal and lingual cusp ridges

25
Q

what is interarch tooth alignment

A

the relationship of the teeth in one arch to those in the other arch

26
Q

what are the different way to describe arch shape and size

A
  • U shaped/square/ tapering
  • symmetrical, smooth in outline
27
Q

which arch is wider

A

maxillary

28
Q

which arch is longer

A

maxillary

29
Q

what is the length of each arch

A

-maxillary: 128 mm long
- mandibular: 126 mm long

30
Q

what is the net effect of normal arch width

A
  • the buccal cusps of the mandibular posterior teeth and the lingual cusps of maxillary posterior teeth occlude with the opposing central fossa areas
  • minimize trauma to soft tissue
    -supporting/centric/functional/ stamp cusps
  • guiding/non-centric/balancing/shearing cusps
31
Q

what is the bucco-occlusal line

A

imaginary line drawn through the buccal cusp tips of the mandibular teeth

32
Q

what is the linguo occlusal line

A

imaginary line defined by joining the lingual cusp tips of the maxillary teeth

33
Q

what is the central fossa line

A

imaginary line that follows the central grooves and fossa of all the posterior teeth

34
Q

what are the interarch relationships

A
  • bucco occlusal line of the mandible occludes in the central fossa line of the maxilla
  • linguo occlusal line of the maxilla occludes in the central fossa line of the mandible
35
Q

a crossbite is the opposite of what relationship

A

the ideal interarch relationship

36
Q

what is a crossbite defined as

A

-the bucco occlusal line of the maxilla occludes with the CF line of the mandible
- the LO line of the mandible occludes with the CF line of the maxilla

37
Q

what is the net effect of arch length discrepancy

A

-tooth to tooth vs tooth to two teeth relationships
- cusp- marginal ridge vs cusp-fossa relation
