module 8 review Flashcards
hierarchy
1) urgent
2) control (caries, perio, extraction, endo)
3) re eval (holding phase)
4) definitive (ortho)
5) maintenance
ortho TP stages
1) problem list and diagnosis
2) orthodontic problems in priority order
3) possible solutions
4) patient parent discussion
5) TP
ortho records generally do not take
1) MRI, TMJS
- because there is CBCT
ortho records
1) lots and lots of photographs
2) look at centerline, overbite/jet, missing teeth
3) evaluate jaw to the cranial base
levels of crowding in the patient
1) mild 0-4
2) moderate 4-8
3) severe >8
pano you can obtain
1) length of roots
2) NOT occlusion of teeth
- the peg upsets the underlying skeletal pattern
3) presence of pathology in the TMJs
4) restorations in teeth
5) root morphology
wits analysis
1) sagittal measurement
2) linear measurement
3) constructed using the occlusal plane point A (maximum concavity of maxilla) and B (on mandibular)
4) relates the upper and lower jaw
sella
1) located by visual inspection
2) landmark point and not an angle or linear measurement
3) not a bilateral structure
4) used in many cephalometric analyses
5) geometric center of pituitary fossa
nasion
1) where the frontal nasal suture is!!!
2) is a landmark point, point landmark and not a linear measurement
3) in midsagittal point
a point
1) the maxilla
2) the most posterior midline point in the concavity between ANS and prosthion
3) used to assess the most reliable anterior aspect of the maxilla
phases of ortho
1) leveling and aligning - niti
2) working - round and rectangular stainless steel (moving teeth to correct occlusion)
3) finishing and detailing - strong stainless steel with bends
goals should be correct by the time you are considering going into the working phase
1) all rotations correct
2) all teeth aligned and level
3) pano radio to check for root parallelism and root resorption
4) all bracket repositioning carried out
prior to finishing phase
1) class I occlusion
2) incisal overjet is corrected
3) incisal overbite is corrected
4) extraction spaces closed
finishing phase
1) fine in and out movements
2) fine vertical positions
3) smile mini esthetics
4) best smile arc
six keys to occlusion
1) no rotations
2) crown angulation correct
3) crown inclination correct
4) no spaces
5) flat or acceptable curve of spee
6) upper first molar to lower first molar
- MB cusp of upper in MB groove in bottom
- DB cusp of upper molar in marginal ridge of lower second molar
