8
Q

What is rotation movement

A

Small amount of mouth opening (up to 20mm)
Condyle and disc remain within fossa
No downwards or forwards movement
Also known as hinge movement

Q

What is the terminal hinge axis?

A

Rotation of condylar heads around an imaginary horizontal line through the rotational centres of the condyles
Imaginary line is termed terminal hinge axis

Q

What is translation of the condyle?

A

Lateral pterygoid contracts
Condyle and disc begin to move
Travel downwards and forwards (may also travel laterally) along incline of articular eminence

16
Q

How to mark tooth contacts

A

Articulating paper
Millers forceps

17
Q

What are the functional cusps in static occlusion

A

Lingual cusps of upper posterior and buccal cusps of lower posterior

18
Q

Types of dynamic occlusion

A

Canine guidance
Group function
Protrusion

19
Q

What is canine guidance

A

When mandible moves to working side contact made only between canines with no posterior tooth contacts- mutually protected occlusion

20
Q

What is group function

A

When mandible moves to working side, multiple teeth in contact on working side- toothwear

21
Q

Problem with dynamic occlsuion

A

Occlusal interference (working side, non working side, protrusive)

22
Q

What is lateral translation of the mandible also known as?

A

Bennet movement

23
Q

What is this angle

A

Bennet angle

24
Q

Types of articulators

A

Average value
Semi-adjustable
Arcon

25
Q

How to register ICP

A

Wax- ICP not obvious- very thin- cusp tip visible
Registration paste- ICP not obvious- silicone paste- thin
Record blocks- free end saddles- casts cannot be hand articulated
No materials- ICP obvious- multiple teeth contact when bite together

26
Q

What is conformative approach/reorganised approach?

A

Conformative- ICP registration without OVD increase
Reorg- opposite- want change

27
Q

When not to use conformative approach

A

Need to make space for restorations
Want change in aesthetics
Teeth out of position

28
Q

Techniques to put teetb intk RCP?

A

Bimanual manipulation
Chin point guidance
Chin point guidance with anterior jig

29
Q

What is the retruded contact position

A

First tooth contact when mandible is in retruded axis position

30
Q

How to register RCP

A

Wate
Paste
Record block
