Occlusion 2 Flashcards
What are the two ways of examining the occlusion
dynamic
static
How can we mark tooth contacts
using millers forceps and fine articulating paper
When do we mark tooth contacts
before prepping a tooth
before removing a restoration
after placement of a crown
after placement of a restoration
What are tripodised contacts
show were the opposing cusps contact (ICP stops)
What can be accessed in the static occlusion
incisor relationship molar relationship overjet/overbite cross bites open bites individual tooth contacts RCP-ICP slide (freedom in centric)
What are the functional cusps
these are the cusps that occlude with the opposing teeth in the intercostal position
palatal cusps of upper posteriors
buccal cusps of lower posteriors
What are the non functional cusps
cusps that do not occlude with the opposing teeth in ICP
buccal cusps of the upper posterior teeth
lingual cusps of the lower posterior teeth
What is a fossa
it is a depression or concavity on a tooth surface
What are the ICP contacts
lingual cusps of an upper molar contacts the fossa of a lower molar
buccal cusps of a lower molar contacts the fossa of an upper molar
What is class I angles classification
normal
incised edge into cingulum
What is class II div 1 angles classification
overjet increased
What is class II div 2 angles classification
overbite increased
What is class III angles classification
reverse overjet
What is an overbite
vertical overlap of the incisors
What is an overate
relationship between upper and lower teeth in a horizontal plane
