Ortho EnD Flashcards
Types of History to Ask for
C/O
Mx: Medical Conditions, Medications, Allergies
Dental Hx: Last visit, relevant past tx, OH regimen, Hx of Trauma, Hx of Ortho
Social Hx: Smoking, Drinking
Familial Hx
Habits
Physical Growth Status: Pre-pubertal, Pubertal, Post-pubertal, Adult
Attitude to treatment
Important family history to check for
Craniofaical syndromes (Cleft Lip/Palate)
Inherited Jaw Proportions
- Retrognathic facial
proportions
- Mandibular Prognathism
- Vertical Jaw Proportions
Congenitally Missing Teeth
Important Habits to check for
Digit Sucking, Pacifier Use, Non-nutritive sucking habits
Forward resting tongue posture/Tongue thrust
Mouth Breathing
How to check for physical growth status
- Change in height/clothes/shoe size
- Peak Growth:
Facial hair on upper lip (M)
1-1.5 years prior to first menarche (F) - End of growth spurt:
Facial hair on lips and chin (M)
First menarche (F) - Chronological Age
- Dental Age
- Radiographs CVM
E/O: Frontal Facial Analysis
11
- Bigonial width is 30% less than Bizygomatic dimension
- Height to width:
1.3:1 (F)
1.35:1 (M) - Facial form: Tapered, Ovoid, Square
- Vertical Proportions:
1:1:1 - Lower facial vertical proportions
1:2 - Facial symmetry - Deviation of nasal septum, shape/size of left and right, Chin point deviation
- Facial, dental and chin midlines relative to each other
- Equal horizontal fifths
- Centered nose and chin in central fifth
- Width of nose =/> central fifth
- Inter-pupillary distance = width of mouth
- Occlusal plane cant
E/O: Profile Analysis
- Soft tissue facial profile: Convex, Straight, Concave
- Skeletal profile: Class I (165-175), Class II (<), Class III (>)
E/O: Soft tissue evaluation

Smile Aesthetics
Tongue
Circumoral muscles
- Lip line at rest (Ant tooth displace with rested upper lip)
- Lip competence
- Lower lip trap
- Lip protrusion (relative to Subnasale (Sn) and Pogonion (Pg))
- Nasolabial angle: Acute, 90, Obtuse
- Labiomental fold: Shallow, Average, Deep/Accentuated
- Incisor Display at rest
Smile Aesthetics:
- Incisor and gingival display on smiling (ideal = full incisor to 2mm gingiva)
- Smile Arc consonent with lower lip line
- Buccal corridors: Wide/Ideal/Narrow
Tongue:
- Resting tongue position
- Active tongue position
Circumoral muscles:
- Tone
- Swallow activity - present as adaptation in AOB or upper incisor protrusion
TMJ Examination
6
- Sound
- ROM
- Deviation on opening/closing
- Occlusal interferences
- CR-MI slide (direction, magnitude, initial contact point)
- Pain
Why is CR-MI slide important
Can cause pseudo class III
I/O: Soft Tissue
- Anomalies
- Frenal attachments: Cleft in alveola, Median Diastema, Ankyloglossia, Proximity to gingival margins (recession?)
I/O: Dentition
- Type
- Teeth present
- OH
- Caries activity
- Anomalies in crown morphology: Severe attrition/erosion, Dens Evaginatus, Talon cusp, Peg-shaped, Microdontia, etc,
I/O: Periodontal Status
6
- Biotype
- Width of keratinised gingiva
- Gingival recession: Generalised or localised - tooth number, magnitude, surface
- Probing depths
- Gingival Inflammation
- Tooth mobility
I/O: Endodontic status
- Pulpal/Periapical pathology
Intra-arch analysis
- Arch form
- Arch symmetry
- Occlusal description: Displacement, Rotation, Tilt/Angulation, Inclination, Vertical position (Infraocclusion/Supraeruption), Impacted/Ectopic
Crowding/Spacing
- Location
- Magnitude:
Mild: 1-4
Moderate: 5-8
Severe: >8
