Occlusal Schemes Flashcards
Mediotrusive movement and contacts?
Non- working side movement
contacts of the teeth on the side opposite to the side toward which the mandible moves in articulation
Contacts on working side?
yes
contacts of teeth made on the side of the occlusion toward which the mandible has been moved
laterotusive movement
Immediate side shift
immediate 1 mm movement of the condyle
Immediate side shift
immediate 1 mm movement of the condyle
TRANSLATORY portion of lateral movement of the mandible in which the nonworking side condyle moves essentially straight and medially as it leaves centric relation
both immediate and progressive side shift are from which condyle?
NON - working side
the translating side
both immediate and progressive side shift are from which condyle?
NON - working side
the translating side
laterotrusive movement
working movement
pronouncing ‘S’ sounds appropriately determines which space?
inter-occlusal rest space - difference between VDR and VDO which is about 2mm?
*contacts during working side movement should do what?
DISARTICULATE the teeth on the non-working side
anterior and lateral excursions should be compatible with?
POSTERIOR CUSPAL ANATOMY TO AVOID POSTERIOR INTERFERENCES
non axial loading
opposing teeth contact on inclines
direction of force is not through the long axis of the tooth
TIPPING FORCES CREATED
this can cause compression and elongation in areas which overall leads to forces that are not effectively dissipated to the bone = complications
axial loading
cusp tip contacts FLAT SURFACES
the forces are directed vertically through the long axis of the teeth
force is well accepted by the periodontal ligament
bilateral tooth contacts + why do we need them
Simultaneous and even bilateral occlusal contacts
1. maximize mandibular movement
2. minimize the overall force to each tooth
STABILIZES bite and minimize forces to each tooth
even the contacts on posterior teeth to share the load of forces
what holds the vertical dimension?
implications?
POSTERIOR teeth - so we need to make sure we have even posterior contacts
name the occlusal schemes
canine guidance
group function
canine guidance
disclusion of all posterior teeth on working and non-working side when going into lateral movement
ONLY CANINES CONTACT ON THE WORKING SIDE
