Orthopedics 9% 6Q Flashcards
Point through which the resultant forces must act on an object to produce bodily movement
Center of Resistance
The center of resistance for single root teeth is approximately ___/___ down the root in bone
⅓
The center of resistance for molars is approximately at:
the level of the furcation
Where the tooth tips/rotates around when the line of force does not pass through CR
center of rotation
When the HG line of force is inferior to CR what movement is produced
CW moment
When the HG line of force is superior to CR what movement is produced
CCW moment
The acceptable force for HG is ____g total of ____g per side
800g
400g
In asymmetric HG, the side that is class I will have the ( shorter / longer ) arm and the side that is class II will have the ( shorter / longer ) arm
shorter
longer
In asymmetric HG, the side that is class II will have the longer arm which is also away from the cheek to counteract what side effect? and also has the added benefit of what?
tendency to create cross bite
more distalization
HG with a unilateral FB can create ( buccal / lingual ) crossbite on Class II side and ( buccal / lingual ) crossbite on Class I side
lingual
buccal
what is the effect on A point for patients undergoing high pull HG Tx?
A point remains stationary
With high pull HG Tx, CCW maxillary rotation will be produced if the line of force is _______ or _______ to the center of resistance
above
mesial
With high pull HG Tx, CW maxillary rotation will be produced if the line of force is _______ or _______ to the center of resistance
below
distal
to get distal movement of the molar, the line of force created by high pull HG must go through:
CR of the molar
the line of force produced by HG is influenced by ___________ and ___________ of the outer bow
length
position
T/F: In HPHG, longer outer bow bent up will have the same force as short outer bow bent down
True
You can counteract observed distal tipping due to high pull HG on upper molars with a ___________ and more gingival outer bow
shorter
you can counter the effects of a tip-back bend, or a CW moment, by using high pull headgear with ( shorter / longer) outer bow
shorter
