22
Q

Working Interference

Happens when we have a posterior tooth that is contac5ng when we guide on the working side, but not the ____

When do you think we will have issues with working interferences? – a pa5ent with normal maximum intercuspa5on might get working interference when we give a new ____, and when we check the bite the pa5ent says feels comfortable
But when pa5ent ____ they complain that it feels weird. When you put the paper in, you may find that the provisional was too bulky on inner incline so now when it guides you created a working interference
The working interference has to be adjusted for because it adds lateral forces, discomfort, and pain to pa5en

A

canine
crown
chews

23
Q

CrossTooth Contact/
Interference

• We are guiding on working side. If its possible, the ____ cusps contact.
• Contact between ____ of mandible lingual non suppor5ng cusps (points to
green dots)against maxillary ____ area (points to green dots)
• Many 5mes ini5ally you have cross tooth interferences when you do ____ for a provisional. This is because the cusps are too bulky. It is something you will check for.

A

lingual
inclines
FOAs
block carving

24
Q

Mediotrusive (Non-working)
—Formerly balancing contacts, but now the teeth disclude.
—Potential sites of contact on the ____ of maxillary lingual and mandibular buccal cusps.
—Mediotrusive contacts are ____.

A

inner inclines

interferences

25
Q

Non-working Interference

• Common on ____ in pa5ents. Pa5ents will complain of pain.
• What is another situa5on where you can have non working interference in the mouth? – When
suppor5ng cusps are out of alignment like if the pa5ent had an ____ tooth. So you end up with loss of a tooth & loss of ideal occlusion.
• Is this easy to fix? – simply grinding away at the marks is not a long term solu5on. The teeth will shic back together and non working interference will return. So you leave the cusps in contact but you leave a ____ so that it slides through. But you don’t loose the ____ by grinding down
the suppor5ng cusps

A

third molars
extruded
channel
VDO
