Orthodontic Diagnosis II Flashcards
Evaluation of Facial & Dental Appearance
- ____-esthetics
- facial form, facial appearance, symmetry, proportionality from far away
- ____-esthetics
- that closer view. how much incisal showinng do we have? look at the smile arch
- ____-esthetics
- view from the prostodontics, we look at contacts between teeth, do we see diminishing views of teeth as we move from anterior to posterior?
macro
mini
micro
General facial aesthetics > combination of ____ and ____
subjective and objective
Facial views in extraoral series
- ____ (smile and repose)
- ____ (lip closure and repose)
- ____ (smile)
5 photos we take: 2 front, 2 profile, 1 3/4 smile
- 3/4 smile is most natural / conversational view is more normal smile aesthetic
frontal
profile
three-quarters
Symmetry
• If we drew a line down the face, how often will we see a completely symmetrical face? Almost never. Almost always will have some sort of ____
deviation
Width
• In terms of width dimension, we see ____ or dead/negative space on Michael. Normally, you should see some negative space but not as much as he has
• Most times we will have buccal corridors that cast some shadows, but often when they are substantial like in his case
we will see that they have a ____ maxillary arch
dark triangles
constricted
- On the otherhand, she has a very wide arch and smile aesthetic so she has almost no negative space. She has a very wide arch.
- Most times, an ideal dark corridor range is ____%
10-13
General frontal outline
- ____
- ____
- ____
- combinations of the three
tapered
square
ovoid
Smile Esthetics
• Is there an ideal smile esthetic? The answer is no because most times this is a ____
range
- For males, we generally prefer to see ____% central incisor show. Steph shows a bit more gingival display. Do we measure in mm or do we measure as a percentage? We measure as a ____! Because we have a lot of variation between CI height so when assessing incisal show we use %.
- Typically this is a range for ideal, from 80% to 100% incisal show, even a range of 2-3 mm of gingival show, we see a lot of variation.
100
percentage
Micro-esthetics
The last aspect we look at is microesthetics (even more detailed). How much connection and contact do we have? Do we have diminishing show? This is of utmost importance to ____. If for example, we have an undersized lateral incisor, we work together with the prost to determine how much space to leave (they may want us to leave more space)
prosthodontists
We can view teeth and jaws 3 dimensionally by using a ____ and intraoral ____ scans.. We will talk about a lot of technology merging together
CBCT
3D
General profile outline
____
____
____
straight
convex
concave
From soft tissue ____ to soft tissue ____ point, we have a straight flowing line. So straight!
Typically,
Straight is ____
Convexity is ____
Concavity is ____
Is a class 3 skeletal or dental in nature? It could be caused by a host and combination of factors, prognathic mand, retrognathic maxilla, dental factors. These are things we should ask ourselves but the facial outline just gives us an ____ idea without diving into details of underlying jaw mismatch
nasion
A and B
class I class II class III initial
Facial thirds
- upper
- hairline to ____
- middle
- supraorbital ridges to below ____
- lower
- below alar base to ____
- should all be ____
supraorbital ridges
alar base
soft-tissue menton
equal
Lower third
Maxillary portion (\_\_\_\_) below alar base to \_\_\_\_ Mandibular portion (\_\_\_\_) lip commisure to \_\_\_\_
one-third
lip commisure
two-thirds
soft tissue menton
Chin prominence
People with more of a ____ tendancy like Jay or more of a ____, are going to look a bit more prognathic. This is not always the case and it is not always detrimental to have more soft tissue in your chin
class III soft tissue pogonion
Just becuase we have more soft tissue pogonion does not always mean it is detrimental. When we see these two convex facial outlines, despite them having the same class 2 discrepency with regard to facial form, he has more soft tissue in his chin which helps him look less ____ than her even though that A and B measurement is ____ for these two
More ____ can mask a class 2 appearance. However for a class 3, this soft tissue will make them look even more ____ (Jay leno). The underlying ____ determines if this soft tissue excess is advantageous or disadvantageous
retrognathic
equal
soft tissue menton
prognathic
sagittal relationship
Lip posture
in repose, lips should be close
- once we see open 2-3mm we have ____
lip incompetence
The reasons for his lip incompetence is twofold
1) significant ____ (sagittal)
2) he has a very heightened ____. So excess ____ max (vertical)
So both can cause lip incompetence, so not always sagittal, could also be ____ cause or upper lip shortage
class 2 overjet
maxilla
vertical
vertical
Nasolabial angle
Angle formed from ____ of the nose and ____. Normally we should see about ____ degrees
alar base
upper lip
90
Can we as orthos have an effect on the nasolabial angle? YES based on the ____ of the teeth.
• If we are going to consider position of maxillary incisors and we have a very good nasolabial angle, we
don’t want to do anything to retract maxillary teeth to go to a more obtuse nasolabial angle as the lip follows the teeth
• Some things like ____ removal could have indirect effects on nasolabial angles because of the
position of the incisors themselves
Danielle already has has an obtuse nasolabial angle and already class II, we would ____ want to remove maxillary premolars because we could become even more obtuse if we lose any more upper lip support
max premolar
NOT
