Occlusion in Fixed Prosth Pt. I Flashcards
Variable Factorsof Occlusion
PLANE OF OCCLUSION:
Imaginary plane containing the incisal edges of the ____ and the distobuccal cusps of the ____
The teeth are never straight along the line; there is always a curve to follow (thecurve of Spee)
Generally the plane isatdifferent ____ relative to the floor
mandibular canines
mandibular second molars
angles
Variable Factorsof Occlusion
CURVE OF SPEE:
Describes how great or little the curve actually is
It goes from the cusp tip of the ____ through the cusp tips of all the ____h on the sameside
Acompilation ofindividual planes of occlusion of individual teeth
mandibular canine
mandinular posterior teeth
Variable Factorsof Occlusion
CURVE OF WILSON: Connects the cusp tips of the
molars ina ____plane
This changes from the first to the ____ molars
There is change in the curve of Wilson with ____r of the dentition. In unworn dentition it is ____ from above. It becomes ____ with wear of the dentition or it can be ____ when the buccal cusps are longer than the palatal cusps.
frontal third wear concave flatter convex

INCISALGUIDANCE
a)OVERBITE: Measured from ____ of maxillary incisors to ____ of mandibular incisors
incisal edge
incisal edge
Variable Factors of Occlusion
INCISAL GUIDANCE
b) OVERJET: Measured from ____ of maxillary incisors along the horizontal plane to ____ of mandibular incisors.
incisal edge
facial surface
Variable Factors of Occlusion
INCISAL GUIDANCE
c) FUNCTIONAL OVERJET: Measured from ____sof mandibular incisors to ____ of maxillary incisors.
FOA’s
guiding inclines
Variable Factors of Occlusion
EFFECTIVE ANTERIOR GUIDANCE:
Defined as immediate disarticulation of ____ teeth by anterior teeth on movement into mandibular ____
Generally for this to be able to occur, the functional overjet for the anterior teeth must be at or near ____
posterior
excursions
zero
Role of Anterior Teeth
In a normal occlusal relationship the maxillary and mandibular ____ contact during ____ movements.
canines
lateral
Static Occlusal Contacts
Tooth to tooth vs. tooth to two teeth
Helps to distribute ____ evenly Helps to maintain ____
Angle classifications
force
arch integrity
Angle Classifications
• We are looking at both anterior and posterior rela5ve to classifica5ons
- Class 1 in anterior (right) but not class 1 on the lec side
- Class 2 division 1 – ____
- Class 2 division 2 – maxillary central is ____ in a lingual version
- Class 3 – ____ or class 3 in cross bite. No ____ in either of these
- Finally, you can have pa5ent with Anterior open bite – caused by late ____
deep bite tipped edge to edge incisal guidance thumb sucking
• Z – centric holding. This is important to hold the ____. If the pa5ent has too light of an
occlusion/centric holding, then we change their ____.
occlusion
occlusion
posterior support
Class II Div I
- Mandible is retronas5c, or the maxilla is ____
- This can be corrected with ortho or orthonac5c surgery
- The rela5onship is off by 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 a tooth
- Here we don’t have effec5ve ____ guidance
prognathic
incisal
Class III
• We see a ____ mandible & a ____ maxilla
• The MB cusp of first maxillary molar is behind the buccal groove of the
first mandibular molar
protrusive
retrognathic
Dynamic Occlusal Contacts
Any movement of the mandible from the centric occlusion position that results in tooth contact is termed ____.
There are three basic eccentric movements
____
____
____
eccentric
protrusive
laterotrusive
retrusive
patient doing a canine guided occlusion. looking posteriorly, we see the posterior teeth ____
disarticulate
pa5ent guiding in protrusive movement. All ____ teeth disar5culate. This is a protected occlusion. They are not picking up occlusion on posterior teeth. This is what we want in ____ pa5ents. Not the case in dentures cases. We will learn more in later courses
posterior
dentate
