Mock SCR Dec 2023 - Ortho Flashcards
Purpose of study models
treatment planning
patient motivators
secondary opnionn
designing a removable appliance
to look at a persons occulsion
Advatantages of a URA
Tipping teeth
excellent anchorage
allows pt to remove and clean to maintain good OH
block movement
overbite reduction
less specailised training
cheaper
shorter chairside time
Disadvatanges of a URA
can easily be removed by the patient
can only move on or two teeth
less precise movement
cannot deal with rotations
Active compontent
what actually moves the tooth
Retention
resistance to displacment forces
speech
gravity
tongue
active component
mastication
Anchorage
the resistance to unwanted tooth movement
Baseplate
self cured PMMA
Connector and retention and anchorage
Removable appliance made of
Stainless steel composed of:
- iron - 72%
- Chromium - 18%
- Nickel - 8%
- Titatnium - 1.7%
- Carbon - 0.3%
Fitting a URA instructions
check the appliance design matches the design speicification for the patient
check the pt details matches the details of the appliance
run finger over the fitting surface to check for sharp edges
check the integrity of the wirework
place in the pts mouth and check for areas of blanching
activate the posterior retention - flyovers then arrowheads
active the anterior retention - flyovers then arrowheads
demo to the pt how to insert and remove the appliance
review the pt every 4-6weeks
activate the component
Patient info and instructions
remove the appliance if taking part in contact sports
the appliance may feel big and bulky to begin with
the patient may expereince excessive salivation
the appliance may impinge on speech
wear the appliance 24/7 including meal times
remove the appliance after every meal and clean with a soft bristle toothbrush
talk to pt about compliance and the requirement to attend appts
avoid hard and sticky foods
provide emergency details
may cause intital discomfort and pain

Class 2 div 1
when the lower incisors lie posterior to the cingulum plaeteu of the upper incisors
the upper incisors are proclined or of average value
the oj is increased
there is a narrow upper arch
digit or thumb sucking habit present lips incompteent with lip trap present
Accept, growth mod, camofloufage, orthognathic surgery if completed growth
Class 2 div 2
when the lower incisor edge lies behind to the cingulum plaeteu of the upper incisors
the upper incors are retroclined
oj is minimal or increased
upper laterals the cingulum can be reduced
the upper 2’s have mesiolabially rotation present and proclined
high lower lip line <FMPA and LAFH, lip trap
Accept, growth mod to get to class 2div 1, camoflauge, orthognathic surgery
Class 3
when the lower incisors lie anterior to the cinglum plaeatu of the upper incisors
the upper incisors are procline and lowers are retroclined
the oj is reversed
can casues tmj issues, ging recession, asymmetry, speech probs, asethetics
How to assess the anterior posterior position
have the frankfort plane horizontal to the floor and palpate the skeletal bases
by the use of a lateral ceph
Purpose of URA
habit breaker
expand the upper arch
anchroage
tipping teeth
space maintaner
reduce overbite
Andrews 6 keys
class 1 molar and incisor relationships
tight approximal contacts with no contacts or rtoations
from the canines posterior slight lingual inclination
flat occlusal plane or slight curve of spee
long axis of tooth with mesial inclination
Types of anchorage
simple
compound
reciprocal
absolute
conical (quadhelix, palatal arch with nance button, transpalatal arch)
Function of quadhelix
bilateral expansion
habit breaker
for cleft lip and palate
fan expansion
aymmetrical expansion
rotation of molars
Relapse most prone in
AOB
crowding
rotations
midline diastema
ectopic canines
OJ
the horizontal distance between the labial surface of the upper incisors and the labial surface of the lower incisors
