occlusion videos Flashcards
occlusion is
dynamic relationship between teeth as the mandible goes through its functional movement
maxilla in occlusion
no movement
fixed to skull/ cranial base
frontal plane occlusal movemetns
shield shape
- mandible moves to working side
- mandible moves away from non working/ balancing side
overjet
horizontal overlap
overbite
vertical overlap
movement when chewing on left
- Mandible move to left
- Left has working movement
- Right has balancing/non working movement
- Side match movement direction – working movement*
- Side does not match movement direction – non working movement*
dots are centric stops
NW condyle movement
slides down the articular eminence
W condyle movement
rotates - centre of rotation for NW
protrusion movement of condyles
both condyles move forward and down articular eminence
occlusal grid
right side of mouth
mandible moves backward relative to maxilla moving forward
- Hence opposite directions
which cusp contacts where cursor is in static occlusion?
Firstly where are we
- Maxilla
- Left
- 26
so Mesial buccal cusp of 36
- (move distofacial of contact point and what it is – so distal margin ridge 26 -> mesial buccal 37)
- Lower move mesiollingual*
what movement does the blue arrow depict in dynamic occlusion?
Straight to buccal for maxilla
- Working movement
Left side of movement
- So left lateral excursive movement
how to use occlusal grid for
if the mandible is moving left, the buccal cusp of the right mandibular second premolar may contact what cusp?
contact 4 on lower
- Find 4 on upper to correspond
Mandible moving left but we have grid for right side
- Side does not match direction
- NW
Hit distobuccal surface of the lingual cusp of the maxillary first premolar
how to use occlusal grid for
In the right lateral excursion the ML cusp of the maxillary second molar passes through what structure?
Right side – working mvmt
Lingual groove mandibular second molar
how to use occlusal grid for
in a left non-working movement, the MB cusp of the right maxillary first molar will pass through what structure?
Mesial buccal not marked in so extrapolate
Non working on left is the right working and we are on right
- So working
Pass through mesial buccal mandibular first molar, central pit and groove
Alginate
irreversible hydrocolloid
- Material of choice for diagnostic casts
- Sodium or potassium salts of alginic acid which react chemically with calcium sulphate to produce insoluble calcium alginate
- Diatomaceous earth add strength
- Trisodium phosphate controls setting rate
- More bulk means less susceptibility to unwanted dimensional change
- 2-3 minutes -> remove tray
- Within 15 mins -> pour impression (in dental stone)
- 30-60 minutes -> casts set
casts
moulds of teeth in dental stone
maxillo-mandibular relations (MMR)
2 key
centric occlusion
maximum intercuspation(MI)/ centric occlusion
centric relation CR
- Position in which condyles articulate with the thinnest avascular portion in their respective discs in the most anterior-superior position against the articular eminences
- Disc – beige
- Condyle is constantly contact with
- Disc – beige
- Independent of teeth
maximum intercuspation MI/ centric occlusion
- Complete interdigitation of teeth
- Independent of condylar position
