Ortho - Lecture 5: Diagnosis & Tx plan Flashcards
A comparison of the amount of space
available and the space required for proper alignment; analysis of space within arch
Space analysis
Space analysis is preformed from where?
Mesial of 1st permanent molar to mesial of other 1st permanent molar
Measure the arch from first molar to the other, over the contact points and incisal edge of the incisors
Space available
Measure the mesial-distal width of each tooth, including the first molars; Add all of the widths together
Space required
Mixed dentition analysis (2)
Tanaka-Johnson
Moyers
Tooth size analysis
Bolton
Uses sum of width of lower permanent incisors
Moyers
Takes total to a prediction chart that will estimate space needed for unerupted or erupted premolars and canines per quadrant
Moyers
Uses sum of width of lower incisors to predict width of unerupted canines and premolars; no X-Rays or predicition charts used
Tanaka-Johnson
Take sum of width of lower incisors and divide by 2
Tanaka-Johnson
How do you predict the width of canine and premolars per quadrant in the Tanaka-Johnson analysis?
Add 10.5mm for lower arch
Add 11.5mm for upper arch
Determines arch compatibility; helps determine the size of a possible
prosthetic replacement if needed; ideal ratio is 91.3%
Bolton
Analyzes asymmetries of a single arch, spacing, diastemas, crowding, and rotations
Cast analysis
