Q

Frontal View

A

Facial Thirds / facial fifths
Symmetry / Asymmetry

Greater than 4mm of tooth show may indicate lip incompetence
Rule of Fifths (one eye = one fifth of the face)
Lateral canthus = gonial angle
Medial canthus = alar base
Pupil = commissure of the mouth
Intercanthal distance = 29 - 36mm
Interpupillary distance = 61 - 64mm

Q

Cephalometric Incisor Position

A

Maxillary - 22 degrees to NA, 4mm anterior (4-6 mm ahead of true vertical A point line)d
Mandibular - 25 degrees to NB, 4mm anterior

Q

Holdaway Ratio

A

NB line through the inferior border of the mandible. Compare lower incisor distance to Pog distance.
Males = 1:1
Females = 0.5:1

A 2:1 ratio equals dental proclination. 2mm is acceptable, 3mm is less desirable, 4mm indicates correction

16
Q

Maxillary Hyperplasia

A

Posterior vertical excess - anterior open bite
Anterior vertical excess - increased gingival / incisor show
AP excess - acute nasolabial angle, increased gingival / incisor show, maxillary protrusion

17
Q

Maxillary Hypoplasia

A

Posterior vertical deficiency - posterior open bite, steep mandibular plane
Anterior vertical deficiency - no tooth / gingiva visualization
AP deficiency - No piriform rim support, no tooth / gingiva visualization

18
Q

Rapid Palatal Expansion

A
Children have 50% tipping, 50% expansion (65% tipping in adolescents)
High relapse (40-60%, recommend 50% overcorrection)
19
Q

SARPE Indications

A

V-shaped maxilla / nasal stenosis
>7mm expansion
Avoids segmental surgery
Decreased relapse (30% versus 50% with LeFort)

20
Q

Cephalometric Wits Appraisal

A

A-O and B-O (lines dropped vertically to occlusal plane). BO should be 1mm anterior in males and lines should be coincident in females

21

A

N-ANS-FH

Normal = 54 +/- 3

22
Q

Can increase the gonial width
Period of IMF

29
Q

Interincisal Angle

A

Steiner
Mean value of 130-131
Reduced angle = class II, division 1
Increased angle = class II, division 2

30
Q

Facial contour

A

S-line = soft tissue menton through the ā€œSā€ of the nose

Ricketts analysis = soft tissue menton through tip of the nose, measuring distance of lower lip

31
Q

C-spine films

A

Skeletal maturity stages based on the analysis of cervical vertebrae are determined by observing the development of concavities in the lower edge of the vertebral bodies and the change of their shape from trapezoid tapering from posterior to anterior, through rectangular with a larger horizontal dimension of the rectangle, square and again rectangular with a larger vertical dimension of the rectangle

32
Q

0.9 : 1 hard tissue to soft tissue changes
0.6 : 1 incisor display
Genioplasty advancement:
